Bruce Bromley Design

Aging baby boomers and the growing acceptance that people have diverse physical and mental abilities have stimulated international interest in accessible and universal design. Almost twenty percent of Australians have a long-term disability. As the Australian population ages, this percentage will increase. Most people with a disability experience some restriction in relation to their core activities of personal care, schooling and employment. However, most are able to live in their own home and retain their independence. Family and friends are their main carers. The picture is one of people with disabilities and the elderly, living independently and with the support of families in their communities. In this scenario accessible environments must be developed. Our understanding of these issues as a society is changing. Instead of thinking of access issue being relevant to someone else who uses a wheelchair, we are thinking more broadly and personally. We are now thinking in terms of universal access -providing access for all people irrespective of ability. Designers must also incorporate other considerations such as economic, engineering, cultural, gender, and environmental concerns in their design processes. These Principles offer designers guidance to better integrate features that meet the needs of as many users as possible. Bruce Bromley Design knows that communication between designer owner and builder is the key to the successful outcome of any project. We utilize state-of-the-art computer aided design, enabling the firm to work on all size projects, while providing clients with the personal service they deserve.
