About this Event

Universal Design is not a new concept; however, it is time for a paradigm shift. Considering ADA, universal design and living in place, should designers now be offering Universal Design solutions to all clients regardless of age or ability?

This course reviews both ADA and universal design guidelines and discusses compelling reasons for recommending universal design in your kitchen and bathroom projects. No longer limited to ADA product and an institutional look, you are empowered to exceed expectations with this new worldview.

Learning Objectives

• Understand the concepts of universal design and how it enhances consumer's daily well-being.

• Compare the ADA and universal design guidelines and explain the differences.

• Learn the seven Principles of Universal Design and how to incorporate these principles into your projects.

• Determine the capabilities of your clients and effectively apply universal design principals when specifying kitchen and bathroom fixtures and faucets.

• Be inspired to create positive changes in the lives of others; impacting your clients' health and well-being through the power of design.
