INTRODUCTION/ When designing for care projects, the types of tiles specified are extremely important. Age-related changes and impairments can often make it more difficult for people to understand and navigate a building, so we have put together a document of tiles assessing their suitability for use in dementiafriendly environments.

Floor coverings are an essential factor when designing a dementia friendly environment as it has an impact not only on the safety and orientation of a space but, when used correctly, can help provide confidence, security and independence.

For a dementia unit, it is imperative to provide the correct colour scheme in order for the patients to feel comfortable. Light reflectance values (LRVs), which refer to the amount of visible light reflected from the walls + floor, play a large part in this. The floor and walls need to contrast by a minimum of 30 points. When designing for people with a visual impairment, good colour contrast between furniture, floors and walls will reduce trips and falls and encourage independence.

DEMENTIA FRIENDLY FLOORING SELECTION GUIDELINES •

Tonal contrast is critical for materials to be seen against each other.

•

Both DSDC and BS8300:2009 recommend a difference of 30 points of LRV between critical surfaces such as, floors to walls and doors to walls.

•

Adjoining flooring should be tonally similar to reduce the risk of falls.

•

Flooring LRVs should be within 8 points of each other (less is better) and no more than 10 points.

•

Transition strips should match the tones of both surfaces with an ideal difference of no more than 3 points of LRV step difference.

•

It is recommended that skirting contrast with both the wall and the door where possible.

DESIGN DO’S •

Develop one tonally continuous flooring surface.

•

Aim to reduce impact sound.

•

Avoid sensory overload.

•

Avoid sparkle & pattern.

•

Opt for matt finishes.

•

Provide good tonal transition between floors.

COLOUR AND CONTRAST/ Colour and contrast can both be used to enable people with sight loss and dementia to identify different rooms and key features inside and outside of their homes. Good use of colour and contrast can facilitate independent living, by supporting people to find their way around unassisted.

These guidelines use the word ‘colour’ in a nontechnical way, but experts use a combination of the terms ‘hue’, ‘saturation’ and ‘tone’ to describe colours. ‘Hue’ is what most people mean when they talk about colour, and shows its place on the colour spectrum i.e. red, blue, green, etc. ‘Saturation’ refers to how vivid colours appear, from bright to ‘muted’. Finally, ‘tone’ is a measure of how light or dark a colour is. Colours can be contrasting if they are different hues, e.g. yellow on blue, or the same hue but different saturation or tone, e.g. dark blue against pale blue. It is important to discuss people’s personal preferences before making decisions on how to create contrast. For some situations, people may consider contrasting hues more appropriate, e.g. where the aim is to highlight a hazard.

It is worth bearing in mind that due to natural thickening of the lens with age, older people may experience colours as ‘washed out’ and may increasingly find blues, greens and purples harder to differentiate.

CONTRASTING POTENTIAL HAZARDS Colour and contrast can be used to highlight hazards. For example, highlighting sharp edges with colour draws attention to the danger that they may pose.

Step edges that are contrasted to stair treads and risers improve safety by helping to visually reinforce the change from flat surfaces to steps.

CONTRASTING KEY FEATURES Using a colour that contrasts with the background draws attention to key features. For example, it can be easier to locate and use switches and sockets, railings and handrails that are of contrasting colour to the wall.

Having furniture in colours which contrasts with walls and flooring helps people with dementia and sight loss to recognise where they are and to find their way around.

Having doorways that are in a contrasting colour to the surrounding walls, and door/window handles that contrast with the doors/ windows help people to use them.

Toilet seats in colours that contrast with the toilet and with other nearby surfaces can help make these more visible.

COLOUR AND CONTRAST/ CHOICE OF COLOUR AND CONTRAST Colour can affect the way that people feel. When choosing colour schemes it is important to consider the impact colour may have on mood.

Individual preferences for how to contrast colours may depend on why people have poor vision, e.g. particular eye conditions may lead to different preferences. Some people may prefer to contrast warmer colours (such as oranges, reds and yellows) against light backgrounds, whereas others may prefer dark colours (e.g. black or dark blue) against light. It is best to consult people before making choices about what colours to use and how to achieve contrast. It is also important to remember that a person’s preferences may change over time.

POINTS FOR REFLECTION AND FURTHER CONSIDERATION Contrasting edges could be perceived as a barrier by some people with dementia. In such circumstances stark contrasts at floor level might become a hazard. In making changes to a person’s home or living spaces it is important to consider what that person needs and wants, and to achieve the appropriate balance between protecting them from potential hazards and supporting their independence and freedom of choice. Consideration should be given to how contrast is used to highlight key features and hazards. Using the same colours or ways of contrasting both could lead to confusion. Care must be taken to ensure there is no risk of hazards being mistaken for important features and vice versa. People may not always find it easy to remember the significance of colours, so it may be helpful to have other visual cues in addition to colour and/or contrast differentiation, e.g. appropriate pictures or signage.

LRV (LIGHT REFLECTANCE VALUES) The Equality Act 2010 requires that all new and refurbished public buildings and work places comply with current regulations in the ‘Access Statement’ to ensure safe entry, exit and safe passage throughout the building. There must be a certain level of contrast between floors and walls, which is measured by Light Reflectance Values (LRV). A minimum of 30 points of LRV difference is required for adjacent surfaces to conform to the current regulations.

WHAT IS LRV? • • • • •

LRV is a universal value for ‘contrast’ It measures the proportion of useful light reflected by a coloured object It represents a relative light and darkness value rather than an actual colour Therefore dissimilar colours could have the same LRV LRV is measured on a scale of 0 to 100, 0 being perfect absorbing black and 100 being perfect reflecting white (in reality you never find these perfect objects - a bright white would typically have an LRV result of 85)

100%

ENTRANCE & EXITS/ Good design of entrances and exits is important for people with sight loss and dementia. With good design of both internal and external entrances and exits, people with dementia and sight loss will be able to move easily between rooms and to enter and leave buildings freely.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS •

Entrance matting should be considered when designing entrance and exits, because when a floor becomes wet from footfall, the likelihood of slip related accidents inevitably becomes greater. Adequate entrance matting can significantly alleviate this problem of walked in contaminants. Well structured entrance matting, that has an adequate walk-off length, captures the dirt and moisture at the entrance, and virtually eliminates any dirt, debris or moisture being tracked any further into the facility. People very rarely stop to wipe their feet in a public building so it’s important to factor in, not just the type of matting (such as aluminium, PVC/carpet) but also the length of matting, and whether the preferred cleaning method works best with an open or closed surface design.

•

Whether in people’s own homes or in care homes, all doorways should be wide enough to be easily accessible for people with different levels of mobility. Additionally, external entrances and exits should be designed to provide easy access to outdoor spaces.

•

Door thresholds should be as low as possible because thresholds which are not flush to the floor can be trip hazards.

BATHROOMS + WET AREAS/ Good bathroom design can support more independence with washing, toileting and personal hygiene. Good design can also help with identification of the toilet and bathroom, especially during the night.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS •

Low-profile shower trays make it easier for people to get into and out of shower cubicles and present less risk of people tripping. Some people may also find wet rooms a helpful alternative.

•

Toilet seats which contrast with the toilet and bathroom surfaces help people to find the toilet.

•

Differenciating doors with different colours can help people identify the location of the bathroom. Supplementing this with appropriate signage or pictures is helpful as some people may not always be able to remember the significance of door colours.

KITCHENS/ Good layout and design of kitchens can make preparation of food and drink easier and thus facilitate independent living for people with sight loss and dementia.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS •

It can be helpful to people to make use of contrast in the kitchen. For example, contrasting handles or knobs on cupboard doors and kitchen drawers are more easily identifiable. Contrast can be achieved using colour, e.g. red coloured handles on white kitchen fittings, or a contrasting tone of the same colour, e.g. dark blue handles on pale blue cupboard doors.

•

Worktops which are of a solid colour rather than patterned and which have a matt finish to them are easier for people to work at, since matt finishes result in less glare than highly polished gloss finishes, and solid colours reduce the possibility of visual clutter.

•

Some people benefit from light coloured worktops in the kitchen as lighter colours help to maximise the distribution of light and to make the most of people’s visual capabilities. This is not the case for everyone, so it is important to find out people’s personal preferences when considering changes.

OUTDOOR SPACES/ It is important that people are able to access gardens and outdoor areas adjacent to their homes. Going outdoors has been shown to have multiple benefits including; providing physical exercise; helping to maintain normal sleeping patterns and daily rhythms; improving mood and helping people to cope with stress. A well-designed outdoor space can be enjoyed by people with sight loss and dementia, as well as their families.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS •

There should be easy access to garden spaces. Light, easily opened doors and minimal door thresholds make it easier for people to get outside.

•

Having well-defined paths helps people to find their way around outdoor spaces. The research evidence suggests that free-flowing looped designs are preferred.

•

Well maintained paths within the garden help to minimise trip hazards.

•

Using contrast on external stairs and steps helps to highlight the change from a flat surface to steps, and using edging materials for paths which contrast with the surrounding area makes paths easier for people to identify and follow.

•

Contrast can help to highlight both key features and hazards in outdoor spaces. It is important that different contrasts are used so that people can clearly identify which is being highlighted in any given instance.

IDEAL SOLUTION FOR EXTERIORS External 20 is an ideal solution for outdoor paving, designed for both public and private use. Easy to install, very easy to inspect any utilities, and easy to reposition in the event of changes to the installation or modifications to the substrate. External 20 ranges have dimensions and a mass such as to guarantee the mechanical resistance and longevity demanded by the diverse requirements of outdoor paving.
