Senior living communities

Clear, warm art that helps residents find their way and feel at home.

In senior living, art does more than decorate. Clear forms and strong contrast help residents read a wall from a distance and recognise a corridor; warm, familiar colours soften long institutional runs. Reflective glazing and busy patterns do the opposite.

DecoSwift bundles suit communities because the prints are simple, high-contrast compositions with a consistent palette, delivered in one frame size so a maintenance team can keep every building matching for years, with a commercial license that covers the whole campus.

Bundles that fit senior living communities

Three Sunroom prints in slim oak frames on a white wall beside floor-to-ceiling windows, a diagonal patch of direct sun falling across the first two prints, with two black office chairs and a white lounge seat below.

Sunroom from $179 per set

Warm, soft-edged shapes in sunny tones are easy to read and cheerful in lounges and dining rooms.

Every bundle: five original 16×20 inch prints (4:5), a placement guide and a commercial display license; larger sizes on quote. One to four sets by card, five or more at 15% off by quote.

Where the prints go

Corridors and wayfinding

A different print from the set at each corridor junction and lift lobby, so residents learn 'the sun print' means the dining room is left.

Dining and activity rooms

Pairs and trios of 16×20 prints at seated eye level, or larger sizes on quote, with non-glare acrylic so overhead lighting does not reflect.

Resident rooms

One 16×20 facing the bed or chair, chosen from the warmest prints in the set.

Reception and family lounge

A larger quoted print, or a trio of 16×20, that feels welcoming to visiting families.

Sizing for senior living communities

Hang lower than in offices: 50 to 54 inches to centre in corridors and dining rooms, since many residents are seated or use mobility aids. Use 16×20 at corridor junctions for legibility and larger quoted sizes in large rooms, always with non-glare acrylic and secure fixings.

Questions from senior living communities

Is the art suitable for memory care?

The recommended bundles use simple, recognisable shapes with high contrast and no text or busy pattern, which guidance for dementia-friendly design generally favours. Use consistent prints as landmarks at junctions.

Can a 120-bed community be priced as one project?

Yes. Rollouts of ten or more sets are priced per project through the trade program, with staged deliveries per building or floor.

How do we keep buildings matching over years?

Any print from any past bundle can be reordered, so refurbishments and replacements match the original installation.

Is commercial display licensed for a care operator?

Every bundle includes a commercial display license covering communities the operator owns or leases, with paperwork for compliance files.

Fifty prints, licensed for your walls.
