If you’re like most homeowners, you’ve not only made your house a home by adding furniture, colors, and décor, but you’ve also filled the space with memories.
A house truly becomes a home when we can picture ourselves staying long term. Whether you’ve built your home from the ground up, or bought your dream home and are remodeling, there are a few changes you can implement to keep your home safe and accessible as you age.
According to Susan Wright from the AIA New York Chapter Design for Aging Committee, “subtle design choices can have a profound impact on how long you can comfortably live in your own home, without compromising your aesthetic aims.”
Adding these small changes sooner will not only save you time and money in the long run, but it will allow you and your partner to stay in your home longer, which has been proven to help seniors have greater health and happiness outcomes.
