Universal Design Housing Solutions for all Ages and Abilities

Universal Design Videos

Universal Design is a holistic approach to the design of products and environments that are functional, attractive, convenient, and support independence for people of all ages and abilities. These videos provides an introduction to Universal Design elements, discusses how Universal Design features are helpful and appropriate for all members of your family, and highlights examples of Universal Design features in a kitchen and bathroom. These videos were made possible by the generous support of Lowe's Home Improvement Warehouse and Dave Fox Remodeling.

They have lived in their home for 30 years and would like to continue living there as long as possible.

We did a full home assessment on her house and pointed out some features that would make her home more safe and convenient for her and her daughter.
