Making Your Home Fit Perfectly Today and Tomorrow
What is “Aging in Place”?
Having the mental and physical capability of living in one's own home as they age; not having to move from one's present residence to receive care or services in their later years.
What is “Universal Design”?
Universal Design is the design of products and environments to be usable by all people to the greatest extent possible without the need for adaptation or specialized design.
As we move through our lives our circumstances and needs change, and with that so does what we want and need from our homes. Does this mean that at every stage of your life you need a different home? No, but it does mean that periodic modifications of your home will allow it to stay as well suited to your life as possible and allow you to fully enjoy the home that you love for years to come. There are many improvements that can be made now and in the future as your needs change.
If you bought your home either before you started a family or while your children were young, your home most likely isn’t senior friendly. Safety issues are a great way to get started on your home remodel. You may need to increase your home’s space or improve its layout. Here are a few ideas for a kitchen or bathroom remodel that you might consider.
