THK HOME FOR THE DISABLED,
Singapore

Located in Sembawang, THK Home for the Disabled provides custodial and institutional care to adults with disabilities. The building is structured in a way that facilitates the sequential progression from public spaces into its more private confines, besides utilising a mix of large and small spaces – the former for conducting events and activities; the latter for residents to seek refuge in.

The interiors are thoughtfully designed and the rooms are naturally lit and well ventilated to create a serene atmosphere conducive to the well-being of the residents. Elevators and staircases are strategically positioned to complement shared amenities and for easy accessibility and navigation. The inclusion of communal breakout spaces such as an open courtyard and lounge areas aim to cultivate safe avenues for socialising whilst promoting bonding among the residents.
