Age in Place Home Design

Smart homeowners and builders are taking a closer look these days at inclusive designs that are adaptable to a variety of residential profiles. As America’s baby boomers get older, more and more are achieving this through personalized design/build services from Ask the House Therapist. The Illinois-based company specializes in age in place home design and universal design house plans for selective homeowners of all ages and abilities.

Ask the House Therapist president and founder Jennifer Stark, a Certified Aging in Place Specialist (CAPS), created the Evolutionary Lifestyle Home Design concept, which relies on a targeted personal assessment profile to tailor a remodeling design and build project to an individual’s or family’s current and future needs. A graduate of the International Academy of Merchandising and Design and member in good standing of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA), Stark specializes in personal assessments, as well as interior consulting and design.

The services provided by Ask the House Therapist can be applied to both existing homes and homes under construction.
