Aging In place Design
Aging in Place design is the idea of making home spaces accessible to all people, including older people and those with disabilities. As people live longer, there is a greater need to create living spaces to accommodate extended life spans. Living at home is usually a less expensive option than moving into an assisted living facility.
Every successful agin in place project begins with design - identifying the needs of the people who will be using the space, and crafting a solution.
A home designed with agin in place in mind can look good - in fact - that is our goal - to have it look luxurious, and not institutional.
