The homeowner is confined to a wheelchair, and needed changes made to the entire home to make it more accessible. This included widening circulation paths throughout the home, lowering the cooking area in the kitchen and changing the hardware and kitchen fixtures to allow easier access. A circular flow was created throughout the first floor, taking full advantage of the view. The existing rooms were completely rearranged to create a new laundry room, dining room and living room, as well as a craft room for the client’s scrapbooking supplies. An elevator was added making access to the second floor much easier than the existing lift up the stairs. The kitchen was completely redesigned to address both the aesthetic and practical desires of the owner. Instead of a conventional range, which is difficult to use from a seated position, a large gas cooktop was installed in a lowered counter with knee space below. A potfiller faucet easer food preparation, and an undercounter, side-hinged oven completes the cooking area. The result is an overall design that will allow the homeowners to remain comfortable throughout their lifetime in the home.
