The first of its kind in Australia, Korongee Village is a landmark dementia care development, set in the suburban village of Glenorchy, 10 mins outside of Hobart. Korongee is an enclosed community village and has a unique approach to its exterior design. The entire village is built with dementia design principles in mind. For example, each house is a different colour, with a distinctly painted door. Each home has its own type of plants in in the planters outside, assisting residents to recognise their home more easily. It was fabulous working with the design team with brick colour selection to ensure a cohesive project in line with their vision & requirements was achieved.

Here at Island Block & Paving we want to make the process of selecting a brick for your project. We offer a FREE Sample Service as well as FREE Quotes and quick order time frames. View our entire Bricks for the Future range here
