th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Yes to universal design in the whole house 🙌🏻😊please please more videos on this
Yes please to Universal Design! Thank you for another great video
I put my lighting on a dimmer switch
I watched umpteenth bathroom interior design videos.
Yours is the only one that offers actually useful, pragmatic advice - keep it up!
I would love a universal design video for bathrooms! We will be renovating a very small bathroom in our circa 1925 condo for retirement. Want to replace the tub with a curb less shower.
"Universal design technique" is why I have torn so many clothes or had things ripped from my arms because all the door knobs are now HOOKs.
F-U "Universal design technique" and all those who use it.
You were born to teach! Your voice, facial hands, and body gestures are engaging and effective. Thank you very very much.
Just watched this again, and her recommendations are excellent, especially about storage.
It's amazing how virtually every bathroom remodel I see on H&G have no medicine cabinet and stingy storage. Amazing.
I agree. Why would anyone be stupid enough not to put in medicine cabinets?!!
This is why I like to listen to multiple designers because you always get one nugget that the others left out. Great information! Subscribed!
Glad it was helpful! And thanks for subscribing!! :)
YES PLEASE Universal Design 👏🏽👏🏽
Yes to universal design. Sensible info. Thanks 🙏
I had to keep pausing this video to take notes! It's so nice to have a designer giving truly helpful tips rather than just talk about trends. A bathroom is a work space. This video was so helpful for designing a truly safe and functional space.
Glad it was helpful!
YES! I would love a Universal Design video! You always have such great ideas!!
Yay! Thank you!
Yes on universal design features!
Thank you very much for all the details Universal Design! Love it!🤩
I'm really glad you have made a point about the toilet. I have recently looked at some designs of some modern houses and I really don't like where they have put the bathroom. These houses are expensive and I don't like how the bathroom opens near the kitchen.
I totally agree!
thanks for sharing and presenting in such a usable way
Yes
Yes!! Get to work!! I’m excited to learn all about it!!
Yes!! So knowledgeable! I’m a student of interior design and I learn so much from your videos! Thank you so much.
Thank you for great video!
Love your videos, educational and inspirational.
Glad you like them!
YES please a video on universal design! Thank you!
yes.... thank you
Yes for a universal design video. We will be renovating our 1930s home and want to age in place. Thanks!
Thank you 👏👏always giving great advice
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Yes! Thanks!
So great to see your suggestions and layouts. Ive just renovated my bathroom. Its very very small, so it was difficult to have many designs or choices. Your ideas are very valuable and exciting. I had to keep my storage minimal. My scales and rubbish bin were important as was my toilet paper bin. But im happy with my small space. I just wanted a simple and easy bathroom at minimal cost. I demolished my bathroom myself renovated it too with herringbone sheet tiles and small hexagon ceramic tiles which was hard but I did it. I couldn't move much around but i went with a shower after taking out the 1960s bath tub and horrible popped vanity and flooring. I live by myself and very pleased with my work. Your ideas were very helpful. Thank you for such a wealth of expertise. Anne NZ
Great Big Yes for universal design. Many thanks madam
Another great video! Thank you for sharing and teaching us the how and the why of home design! Yes, please share universal design.

You’re welcome 😊 and thank YOU for watching!
YES! that would be a great video.
Yes thank love ❤️
Thank you so much for your excellent video. I learned a lot and would love to see a whole video on universal design.
You're in luck! I've already made the Universal Bathroom video! Here it is... th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Hi great video! can you use curbless shower on a second floor bathroom?
YES to a Universal design video. Thanks!
You got it! Here it is... th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Great advice
Great tips! I'd love to see a video about Universal Design.
Great video - points were clearly understood. I'm normally the type of person who has to speed up and skip through a video but with your delivery I find myself staying for the whole video.
What is your opinion on curbless showers but the floor of the shower is lower than the surrounding space?
Thank you for clarifying the benefits of Universal Design for everybody. Hopefully, these will become standard in the future. For now, (sigh) my bubble-gum pink 1960s bathroom will just have to do. Thanks for another great video. When watching your videos, I always learn something new, or start thinking in another direction.
Thank you, Kim!
"Universal design technique" SUCKS. The more you make things universally better for the few, the more things SUCK for the many. Single-handle water SUCKS! Lever door handles SUCK.
F-U "Universal design technique" and all those who use it.
I'll match your bubble gum pink, jack and jill bathroom and raise you an avocado green!! lol In the middle of stud to stud, slab to rafter remodel...
Universal design features...big fat YES!!!
Yes please. I am interested especially for elderly, wheelchair access.
Liked the tips 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Glad it was helpful!
Yes! Universal design, please.
I too would love to see a universal design video.
YES
YES, universal design video
yes to universal design video
Yes, the more info you can share, the better
Unfortunately, commercial homebuilders don't always follow these commonsense rules.
I'm talking about windowless bathrooms and powder rooms in the entire house. There's no way around them, esp. for that windowless powder room with an outward opening door that's just inside the front entry door and right across from the kitchen. Although the powder room has no sightlines of the toilet and sink from the kitchen, the location itself is problematic -- too close to the front door and too close to the kitchen that is partially open by a pony wall that borders the 12-ft entry hall. That builder went out of business two decades if you're wondering....
yes!!!! pls do a universal design video (different rooms/whole house)
Yes please make a universal design video. I am getting ready to renovate my bathroom.
Yes please - I am about to build and bathrooms are so important.
>excellent information !
Yes please
Yes to universal design!
yes
Universal Design is a huge benefit for all people. IMO it is equivalent to putting insurance into yourself. If one is to become disabled from injury, disease, ext. -having a home to live in and ready to go while working on therapy would save a lot of stress. Plus our health care system is all about home health. Email me for info related to home health nurses assessment of home safety.
I am so excited to learn more!
YES!! Universal design video please.
Coming soon!
Great big Yes.
YES! Universal design is so important.
I totally agree! Here's that video! It just went live! th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
YES Please
YES!
yes on the universal video!!
Here you go! th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Yes!
“There’s nothing worse than feeling like your beautiful freestanding bathtub has been shoehorned into your small bathroom.”
I beg to differ. Being my height and having to use a 5’ bathtub is worse. 😂
Yes please. Need more info
Yes to Universal Design
Yes! On universal
Love your video, great tips. In general, the comfort high toilets confuse me slightly. For us shorties, they are definitely not comfortable. But I would think that the shorter toilets would overall be better for all people relieving themselves (thinking about the squatty potty). Is the comfort height more beneficial for standing back up after being seated?
The taller seat simply makes it easier to sit down and stand up. The higher seat alleviates discomfort that comes from squatting down and cocking the knees out to the sides. A comfort height toilet is especially beneficial for taller people, seniors and anyone with knee or back pain. Thanks for watching!!
I'd be interested to know how one would tackle bathroom placement in an old house that has no hallways, just connected rooms. Currently, one has to walk through one of two bedrooms to get to the only bathroom in the house.
We're currently looking at turning a room is classified as a bedroom into a second bathroom, because it's the only place we could i stall a bathroom without access. The thing is, this room located right off of the dining room.
YES please!
Yes please!
Yes! Universal design... aging in place!
Here you go! th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Yes please send ides
Yes! Universal design, please!
You got it! Here it is... th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
If you're sectioning off a WC area for the toilet, how wide does this space need to be?
Yes on universal design
Here it is! th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
So, what, if anything can we do with a renovation by a previous owner that placed the toilet at the far end of the central hallway facing directly at the front door. Help!
Yes,universal design.
yes, universal
Guess what!? Universal kitchens...coming very very soon! Keep an eye out!! :)
I can’t do any of the designs listed. I live in a ranch 60s duplex. The bthrm was converted to a bath and a half. My remodel/carpenter is my brother and he isn’t about to spend countless hrs on my home.
Good design isn’t always easy! And sometimes you just have to live with seeing the toilet. 🤷🏻♀️
yes!
Here you go! th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Yes, I am interested in Universal design
Great... here it is! th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Yes please! We’re renovating our ensuite in early spring for aging in place so this would be very timely. I’m confused about where and how high to place necessary elements. What needs to be considered to accommodate a walker, should that ever become necessary? Love your videos!
Brigitte Moore I was thinking the same thing with a wheelchair. A straight shot to the toilet is the easiest way.
To accommodate a walker you need a door that is at least 30 inches wide. Our grandmother had to stand still and turn the walker sideways and manhandle it through the door opening and then rearrange it after getting it through the door so she could continue to the toilet. At 99 years she needed the support of the walker to simply stand. One day she fell backwards and I caught her. My back has never been the same. Such a shame that almost all builders only allow for a 24 inch wide bathroom door.
11:47 yes
I’d love a bathroom video for elderly
Yes to universal
My new bathroom installed in 2004 has a bathtub sunken 18 inches below the floor level. I was a Senior when advised to do this. Can you imagine any advice to be worse? At 78 years of age I now have the nightmare of removing the bath and converting into a shower. Regards and thank you from Sydney, Australia.
Aww I'm so sorry about that. Tubs are awkward enough as they are, let alone sunken into the floor. You'll be so much happier with your shower - check out my Universal/Accessible Bathrooms video. LOTS of important information about grab bars and finishes to help keep your bathroom a safe space! Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Good luck and thank you for watching. :)
as much info on universal design as possible please 🥰
would love to see a video on universal design, as we are currently building for 'aging in place', so that type of design in all aspects would be helpful. thank you.
Haha, Nick Lewis said recently that you can hide it, but everyone knows you have a toilet in there.
PLEASE!!!! Just. Say. NOOOO!!!! to a "water closet" unless it is a "walk in closet" size:. They are hard to clean especially behind the toilet. Even harder to maneuver in if you have plumbing issues or mobility issues that are permanent or temporary. And, if you ever want or need to paint.... it is gruelling. It is also a claustrophobic experience for some people,. AND, if you insist on going down this road anyway, make sure you figure out where you are going to keep the extra toilet paper and... a plunger, and perhaps your toilet bowl cleaner. You will need these things.. Nothing worse than realizing you are out of toilet paper and need to leave "the closet" to get some more. A plunger. There is something we all use but no one ever thinks about "where am I going to store this fugly thing?" Yep.... we have a three sided "water closet: and I hate it. For every single reason I have just said. I am not that tall, 5:3 and I hate my knees banging into the side walls. We will be renovating soon and this wall is getting cut down to about 12" or so, enough to make an enclave above the toilet where some floating shelves can go. Much nicer, much more practical. Far easier to keep clean behind the toilet. Please do not listen to idiot designers (which Designer Chick is not) and home builders or renovators who want to give you things that look good, but do NOT function well. It should always be make it work well, function well, practical... then make it pretty.
A person with passion for the toilet! I love it. And thank you for clarifying that I'm not one of those idiot designers. Phew! Good luck with your renovation. And thanks for watching!!
yes please UD
Both of my bathrooms touch exterior walls but for some reason neither have a window. 🤯 And to top it off the master bathroom toilet sits center to BOTH doorways so unless I’m willing to have the toilet relocated then I can’t remove the extra door that separates the toilet and shower from the vanity and closet. Wish the builder had watched your video!!!
I feel your pain! Thanks for watching and commenting! :)
YES yes yes !😃👍
Thanks for your enthusiasm! And for watching! Here you go... th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Check your local codes. Our codes don’t allow for chandeliers above the bath tub. They also require ventilation. If you don’t meet codes you may have to fix it before selling your house.
Absolutely always check your local building codes. And ceiling chandeliers or ceiling lights don't have to be above your tub. I just think we need to have them in the bathroom generally. They add so much more to the ambiance of the room. Thanks for watching.
Our powder room opens to a little square area with three doors, but with the door open the toilet is also somehow is completely visible thought the living room window up front. :/
First world problems, I know but still :/. LOL
I only have one bathroom I'd like to replace the tub with a walk-n shower, but then it's no longer a full bath. Is this a bad move?
A Universal type bathroom is never a bad move! Check out this video... th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html
Hi enjoyed your video, I would like to know if you have time for a consult. I have been working on a layout of a large bathroom and need help. Thank you! Would like to discuss further in a non public forum. Thanks so much...
