Senses alive

The new Christchurch Multi-Sensory Facility on offer at the QEII is a first in the Southern Hemisphere offering a publicly accessible place of learning and relaxation for those with disabilities and their families. Family members can relax and watch as new sights and sounds stimulate the four main senses and imaginations of their loved ones, safe in the knowledge that trained assistants are on hand to maximise the experience. Or, all whom enter can enjoy the centre first hand and take part in the sensory experiences offered.

Those visiting the centre can also experience a Resene Lumbersider satin acrylic interior finish in sense stimulating hues of Resene Viking (fresh blue), Resene Peach (light peach), Resene Pattens Blue (light blue), Resene English Holly (deep green), Resene Blackberry (deep violet), Resene Valentino (deep violet), Resene Puerto Rico (blue edged green) and solid black.

With interactivity and stimulation built into every aspect of the facility, from colourful switch controls to innovative lighting and bright wall finishes, be prepared to have your senses excited.
