Guiding Principles
Aging In Place
According to a number of independent studies, the majority of older Americans prefer Aging In Place, which means living at home safely, independently, comfortably and with dignity. It has been the experience of our clients that aging in place often requires the renovation of living environments that were not designed to accommodate acute physical needs. Such renovations are the focus and specialty of Renovations for Life, LLC.
Universal Design
Design that works for those with physical needs should not stigmatize the user. At Renovations for Life, we believe accessible design can work well for people of all ages and abilities, without sacrificing aesthetic value. While safety and accessibility are absolutely critical in our designs, we find that aesthetically pleasing solutions are possible and should be sought after.
