Universal Design Made Practical and Beautiful
Welcoming aging parents into your home is a meaningful decision. It’s about more than logistics; it’s about creating a space that offers comfort, dignity, privacy, and ease of daily living, without sacrificing beauty or cohesion within your home.
Universal design allows you to thoughtfully adapt your living space so it supports changing needs while still feeling intentional and refined. When done well, these updates blend seamlessly into your home’s design rather than looking like afterthoughts.
Design Build Remodeling Group of Maryland brings decades of experience designing and remodeling homes throughout Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll, Frederick, Howard, and Montgomery Counties. We understand how to reimagine existing spaces with sensitivity, balancing accessibility, aesthetics, and long-term functionality.
Thoughtful Solutions for Aging in Place
Every family’s situation is different, which is why universal design should never feel one-size-fits-all. Our team takes a personalized approach, ensuring each element supports comfort and independence while complementing the architecture and flow of your home.
Common features requested for aging-in-place and multigenerational living include:
- Curbless or low-threshold showers
- Grab bars integrated discreetly into the design
- Comfort-height toilets
- Wider doorways and hallways
- Improved task and ambient lighting
- Gentle ramps or reduced thresholds
- Accessible bathroom layouts
Each solution is carefully planned to feel natural, elegant, and intuitive.
