What is Aging-in-Place?
“In plain English, aging-in-place means remaining in one’s home safely, independently, and comfortably, regardless of age, income, or ability level. It means the pleasure of living in a familiar environment throughout one’s maturing years and the ability to enjoy the familiar daily rituals and the special events that enrich all our lives. It means the reassurance of being able to call a house a ‘home’ for a lifetime.” —As defined by National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)
Designing for Aging-in-Place, or Universal Design, means customizing your home to meet your immediate and long-term individual needs, but this kind of remodeling doesn’t have to look or feel institutional. As a design-build firm, Renewal can seamlessly incorporate these elements into any remodel. Such design features can include:
- Grab bars
- Walk-in tubs
- Shower seats
- Wider doorways and hallways
- Increased artificial and/or natural lighting
- Wheelchair accessible sinks and vanities
- Easy access storage
- Raised dishwasher
- Rounded countertops
- Home automation systems
