    Such a popular topic! Make sure to watch the companion video for Accessible Bathroom Design! Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/Q26qXEgrFA8/w-d-xo.html

    Another great video! I'd love a whole series dedicated to universal design. I'd love to hear suggestions on exterior universal design (i.e., how to make patios, gardens, porches accessible)

    This is amazing. More universal design, please! Here’s an idea-please use universal design for a multipurpose room, like guest room/office/den. My folks (85) are downsizing to a two bedroom 1000 sq foot ranch so they need this type of space.

    Love your videos, particularly the universal design videos! I would love a video on how to design your home so it is easy to clean! It seems like it goes hand in hand with universal design.

    I use a wheelchair. French door refrigerators with the freezer on the bottom works best for me. The fridge doors open over my lap, so I don’t need to back up when opening the door.
    Lower down, drawers are much easier to use than shelves

    Haven't seen much (locally) in specifically designed stove/ovens for w/c users. Australia/England has showcased doors that open much like a normal door, allowing easier access in removing hot pans from the oven. Did like the idea of 'landing stations'. I haven't considered the difficulty in removing a heavy roast, large heavy pot from the position of being in a w/c. (Yes, I don't need it now, but who knows with aging in place.)

    Pot fillers make no sense. You still have to carry the pot to the sink to empty it.

    yes more universal design. How about those dishes and pots and pans. Overall Kitchen storage designs and decluttering would be helpful. I've been told to not reach above my head or bend too far.. overall back problems which will require surgeries... sometime soon. Living well is a concern of mine,. Many thanks.

    Great definition of Universal Design and link to ADA web site. Clearly, Universal Design will gain popularity as a means of aging in place as well as a way to make the home safer and more efficient for everybody. May I ask which brand of pull-down hardware for cabinets you suggest? Thank you for another great (and practical) video.

    Hi there. Such a great video. Hubby and I are moving into our a home at 58 and 60. We're both healthy and mobile currently. However, I want to design our new home layout to meet the needs of our future selves should we need disability accommodations down the line. Wonderful tips. Thank you.

    Thank you for doing this issue. I am thinking to renovate soon because of my age.

    Thank you so very much, this video is so needed
    We plan to stay in 1908 home as long as possible and have already updated bathrooms, would be wonderful if you had ideas to protect walls /doorways/ etc from wheelchair damage
    Thank you again for sharing

    Love these ideas, how ever i would like more information or a visual depiction of how to access the oven as at 06:16

      The height means you don’t need to bend over. When the door is open it acts as a counter top. So you can set your hot pan down and don’t have to do the navigating from oven to counter in one step

    Very good video with many ideas. I am diseable but not on wheelchair yet. The reno of the kitchen was june21 with much of these ideas with all rounded countertops and only drawers, even in the corner. My husband adds a sensor that put lights on when you enter the room. No need to look for the switch. I just have to ask Alexa to switch off the kitchen lights when i leave the kitchen.

    Wouldn't an 8-9 toe kick be best for wheelchair use?

    I am looking for vendors for adaptive cabinetry.

    How would you combine the needs of someone who is 6 foot with a wheelchair user - the required surface levels for these two seem to be incompatible - most houses would not have space for two kitchen's worth of surfaces
