Accessible Remodeling Without Sacrificing Style



Home improvements that involve accessibility improvements can conjure images of sterile spaces like hospitals and nursing homes. This is why it’s not unusual for homeowners to hesitate when considering accessible remodeling, which can lead to potentially missing out on its benefits. Fortunately, finding a good balance between style and accessibility is entirely possible. Read on as DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Greenville shares a quick guide on how to do so.

How To Balance Style and Accessibility

It’s important to remember that accessibility hinges on functionality; heavily leaning towards it is what gives a space a cold, sterile look. If you’ve been looking into accessibility improvements, you may already have come across the phrase “universal design”. In a nutshell, it’s designing spaces or products to make them more accessible to people, regardless of age, disability or other factors. In homes, examples of universal design in practice are wider doorways and zero-step entrances, which allows inclusion of wheelchair users and people with limited limb movement.

Hospitals and nursing homes are relatively public spaces, so the colors are typically neutral or muted. You don’t have such a limitation in your home, which means you can pick colors that can misdirect the eyes from features like grab bars. Working with a remodeler that specializes in design-build projects can help streamline this part of the process, as design elements, including colors, can be visualized and incorporated into a bathroom or kitchen quote.
