Specialist Design Services for Accessibility, Dementia and Inclusive Living
I work with clients across Essex and beyond, offering in-home consultations and specialist design services tailored to your situation.
Dementia Design Service
Helping families create a safer, more familiar home
When someone you love is living with dementia, the home you’ve always known can start to feel uncertain. Doors that confuse, lighting that disorients, layouts that were never designed with cognitive change in mind. It doesn’t have to stay that way.
Jo Jeyes is an interior designer specialising in dementia-friendly home design, with both professional expertise and the lived experience of caring for her own mum. She visits your home and looks at it through the eyes of someone living with dementia, giving you clear, practical guidance on the changes that will make the biggest difference.
What a dementia home assessment covers:
Lighting, layout, flooring, wayfinding, colour contrast and the small details that are easy to miss but matter every single day.
The result:
A home that feels safer, calmer and more familiar. For your loved one, and you.
Accessible Design Service
Accessible Interior Design:
For clients with mobility challenges or those who require special accessibility adaptations, I create designs that are safe, functional, and stylish. I am available to work collaboratively with your occupational therapist and multidisciplinary team, or to provide private support directly to families.
Neurodiverse and Sensory-Sensitive Spaces:
For clients or family members with neurodiversity, my designs embrace individual preferences and sensitivities, helping create calm, functional environments that feel just right.
Interior Design Services
Interior Design
Alongside my specialist work, I occasionally take on smaller interior design projects. If you have something in mind, get in touch and we can have a chat about whether it’s a good fit.
Why choose me?
I design with both my head and my heart. I understand that when a home needs to change, it’s rarely just about practicalities. There’s usually something much more personal going on. I’m good at sitting with that, and at finding solutions that feel right for the person who lives there, not just the person who built it.
I work across Essex and beyond, specialising in accessible and inclusive design. Every project I take on gets my full attention and genuine care.
What I believe
A well-designed home should work hard and feel wonderful. It should reflect who you are, support what you need, and give you that quiet sense of ease that good design can bring. That’s what I’m here to help you create.
