As we have completed many projects for clients in the past, we have installed many useful tools that have helped make clients’ homes more marketable and that fit the principles of universal design. You can also implement these same elements in your own home.
For example, most of us see pullout shelves and mixer cabinets in design and only think of them as a novelty, when, in fact, they are so much more than that. Over the past year I and my wife, the owners of Annapolis Kitchen and Bath, have been encouraged to see how we can take all of our life experiences and share them with our clients and designers to make our kitchen and bath projects livable homes for the future. Whether a client plans on living in their home forever or selling it in the next four years, it is always beneficial to plan for a universal design that will be functional for everyone.
Larger doors allow for walkers or wheelchairs so the user has access to as many rooms as possible. Sophisticated design features that are fashionable and desirable such as a Beach Entry Shower (roll-in shower) or even an accent piece like a pot filler are not only great design features, but make a home easier for someone who is aging in place or with special needs.
If you start thinking about your future needs and those of your loved ones, not only will you feel a sense of peace knowing that you will be taken care of, but your home will also be more marketable.
We are proud that Annapolis Kitchen and Bath is an award-winning company whose installers are courteous, honest, hard-working and second-to-none. If you don’t believe us, check out our Testimonials.
