Pourquoi Ça Marche
Age-friendly design follows universal design principles — creating spaces that work for people of all ages and abilities. Wider doorways accommodate wheelchairs but also make furniture delivery easier. Lever door handles are simpler for arthritic hands but also more convenient for anyone carrying groceries. Non-slip flooring prevents falls for seniors but also protects toddlers. These changes benefit everyone in the household and future-proof the home for decades.

Questions Fréquentes
Do aging-in-place features make a home look institutional?
Not anymore. Modern grab bars come in designer finishes like matte black and brushed gold. Walk-in showers are a luxury trend. Lever handles are standard in contemporary design. Most universal design features now look intentionally stylish.
What is the most important aging-in-place upgrade?
Bathroom safety — falls are the leading cause of injury for seniors at home. A walk-in shower with a bench, grab bars, and non-slip flooring is the single highest-impact modification.
At what age should I start planning for aging in place?
The ideal time is during any renovation, regardless of age. Universal design features benefit every age group, cost less when installed during a renovation, and add resale value. Starting at 50 gives you time to make changes gradually.
