Common Sense Universal Design - Creating Accessible, Safe, Comfortable & Desirable Homes (Paperback)

"Common Sense Universal Design: Creating Accessible, Safe, Comfortable & Desirable Homes" is a special type of book written for both consumers who want to do their own remodeling and renovation as well as the professionals who help them or provide it, to achieve a safe, accessible, comfortable, and convenient living environment while enhancing the enjoyment and value of the home for everyone in the home and those who come to visit. The objective is to appeal to all ages and abilities and to implement strategies and solutions that are nearly invisible - ones that do not call attention to the design but fit right in as functional elements to achieve the objective of a safe design for the widest possible audience. Aging in place and remaining in the home are guiding principles - along with safety and accessibility. The 7 chapters in this book are; 1 - "What Is Universal Design?" 2 - "Universal Design As A Solution," 3 - "Easy Universal Design Solutions," 4 - "More Involved Universal Design Solutions," 5 - "Other Universal Design," 6 - "Universal Design On The Outside," and 7 - "Summary Of Universal Design Treatments." This book will serve as a ready guide for installing the improvements in your home that will help it appeal to members of the household, visitors and guests, and future owners.
