Resumen:
High-Access Home. The stunning residences featured in this book are eye-catching, to be sure. Beautiful rooms are captured in compelling photographs throughout. From a modern masterpiece in Petaluma, California, to a museum-quality mansion in Potomac, Maryland - these are all dream homes, the kind of places you'd expect to see in the most design-minded, upscale shelter magazine. With one difference. All of the homes in this book are barrier-free. This is to say they are designed to meet the needs of people with disabilities; all are based on the principles of Universal Design. It's a philosophy that makes sense, not just for people with limited mobility but for anyone who enjoys the unencumbered comforts of home. What's remarkable is how seamless it all appears. The book illustrates plainly that accessible homes do not have to be ugly, antiseptic homes. Far from it. |
