Authors John Salmen and Ron Knecht had the vision and the means to design and build homes in which they can age in place. In Universal Design Tips, the two explore potential Universal Design elements and features found in their early twenty-first century homes in the United States. Universal Design Tips presents an insightful and practical design, building, and architectural guidebook for helping developers, architects, and homeowners better understand the principles of universal design, a design and building methodology and approach that ensures homes are widely accessible for all people regardless of impairments, size, or age. Filled with the lessons learned from their personal experiences, as well as Salmen’s lifelong career in the field of accessibility, Universal Design Tips works through each element of a UD home and offers advice, tips, and ideas. It empowers builders and architects to create homes where people can live safely, independently, and comfortably for years to come.
