Mysa Care, a trusted provider of residential care for adults with learning disabilities, autism, and mental health conditions, recently completed a full refurbishment of Netley House in Farnborough, UK. The aim was to create an environment that strikes the right balance between safety, comfort, and style – fully aligned with the organisation’s person-centred approach to care.
From the outset, Mysa Care outlined a clear set of furnishing requirements. Items needed to be weighted, tamper-resistant, and reduced-ligature to ensure resident safety, while also appealing to the tastes and preferences of a younger client group. Crucially, the interiors needed to avoid any clinical appearance in favour of a warm, welcoming aesthetic. Each apartment was to have a distinct, personalised feel using varied colour palettes, and interior design choices had to offer both durability and long-term value for money.
Pineapple was selected as the furniture supplier due to its longstanding reputation and versatile range of products specifically designed for healthcare and mental health environments. “Pineapple stood out thanks to their versatile, contemporary range and excellent reputation in healthcare furnishings,” said a member of the Mysa Care team.
“Several of our staff have worked with Pineapple products for over 20 years, and once again, they delivered exactly what we were looking for.”
The result is a thoughtfully furnished, safe and stylish home, showcasing a carefully chosen selection of Pineapple’s robust products. These included Ryno® Dining Chairs in Warm Terracotta – designed for both comfort and strength – Cumulus Plus Dining Tables, Harby Plus TV Cabinets and Snug Plus Modular Seating to create cosy and safe communal areas. Acumen Coffee Tables and Sideboards provide secure storage with lockable drawers and doors, while Reef Plus Sofas, with their armless design, enable safer de-escalation practices when needed.
The delivery and installation processes were another standout aspect of the project. “The quality of the furniture was outstanding, and it instantly helped create the safe, stylish and homely environment we envisioned,” Mysa Care noted.
“We were especially impressed by the dedicated delivery team, who worked in extreme heat to get everything into place with care and precision.”
Mysa Care also praised the customer service received throughout. “We’ve been thoroughly impressed, not just with the products, but with the friendly, responsive and professional service throughout,” they added.
This project is a noteworthy example of how thoughtful design, high-quality furnishings, and collaborative working relationships can enhance the quality of life for residents. We are proud to have contributed to this successful transformation and extend our thanks to the Mysa Care team for their trust and collaboration.
