Universal Design Ratings for Developers
Universal Design Ratings for Developers
Universally Designed housing paves the way to better neighbourhoods and communities.
Lifemark® provides Universal Design consulting for developers with a vision of creating better-performing neighbourhoods. We work with a range of professionals, from group home builders and boutique developers to retirement village operators, taking the guesswork out of housing design with our clear and achievable standards.
Our experienced team can provide end-to-end Universal Design advice to ensure a development achieves its objectives and accounts for the diverse population that may live there. A Lifemark® rating is an independent and reputable way to set your development apart in the market and leave a legacy for housing in New Zealand.
Homeowners
If you would like to take advantage of a council-led incentive programme, have specific access and mobility requirements or simply want to build your “forever” home with a future-proofed design, we can help. The Lifemark® team works directly with the designer or architect to ensure your home will meet your current and future needs. Simply specify the Lifemark® rating you want in your building contract.
Simply specify the Lifemark® rating you want in your building contract by stating:
"This dwelling must be built to a Lifemark® 3-star / 4-star / 5-star rating as certified by the Lifemark® office using the current Lifemark® standards."
