Aprašymas

"Universal Design For Safety: Creating Safe & Accessible Living Spaces For All Ages" is a book written for consumers who want to do their own remodeling and renovation to remain in their home and age in place successfully (or just get the most out of their home for the next few years) as well as the professionals who will help them or provide it. The objective is for anyone to achieve a safe, accessible, comfortable, visitable, and convenient living environment while enhancing the enjoyment and value of the home for everyone in the home and those who come to visit. Safety is the key focus for creating living spaces that will meet the needs of those currently in the home or apartment (this book is for owners as well as renters) as well as the next residents - whenever that might be. Universal design appeals to all ages and abilities, and the strategies and solutions that are suggested yield nearly invisible improvements - ones that do not call attention to the design but fit right in as functional elements to achieve a safe design for those living in the home as well as the occasional visit or houseguest. Safety, accessibility, comfort, and convenience are expressed guiding principles. The 7 chapters in this book are; 1 - "Universal Design Promotes Safety," 2 - "Universal Design Has Huge Benefits," 3 - "Easy Universal Design Solutions," 4 - "More Extensive And Intensive Universal Design Solutions," 5 - "More Universal Design Safety And Convenience Strategies," 6 - "Universal Design On The Outside," and 7 - "Summary Of Universal Design For Safety." This book will serve as a ready guide for evaluating safety in the home and designing improvements that will help it appeal to members of the household, visitors, houseguests, and future owners - plus doing the work yourself or having it done.
