Universal Design House Plans

America’s baby boomers are more active than ever, traveling more than previous generations, enjoying productive working and social lives, and participating in lifestyles and activities that used to be the exclusive territory of their children and grandchildren. They’re living longer than their parents, staying healthier into old age, and expecting and achieving a higher quality of life than ever before. Modern seniors aren’t even close to rocking-chair ready, and certainly not close be being nursing-home ready.

This positive shift in the senior mindset is the force behind the growing popularity of universal design house plans. The theory behind this concept is to plan and create homes that incorporate features that accommodate a variety of needs into one structure. Evolutionary Lifestyle Home Design, the innovative universal design and aging in place concept from Ask the House Therapist, helps individuals and families design and build sustainable designed homes or tailor existing homes to meet the active adult lifestyle, while keeping an eye to possible future needs.

Universal Design and Aging in Place

Today’s seniors are swiftly beginning to recognize the value in proactively investing a little in a universal design and aging in place assessment up front, in order to ensure more desirable results later. Universal design house plans offer aging homeowners a more comfortable and independent lifestyle as their needs change, and in the long run is less expensive and fulfilling than moving into a retirement home or community.
