Project Summary
"Aging-in-Place in Style" is the story of a senior couple nearing retirement and wanting to remodel their main bathroom for aesthetics, functionality, and safety.
Like most homeowners who remodel, figuring out the budget is a big challenge that requires fully transparent collaboration among all parties. It also takes patience, thoughtfulness, and, well, as they put it "A pretty good sense of humor."
This particular remodel came with an even bigger challenge—a large built-in Jacuzzi-type tub positioned in a square space, which is notoriously difficult to design around. We had one of our top designers on it, however, and he came through in style, creating a very efficient, bright universal design to accommodate these homeowners now and far into the future.
This short video unpacks the problems solved and design decisions made to create a remodel that literally improves the lives of the homeowners.
