Stepping Thru Accessibility Webinars

NOTE:  AIA HSW learning units will not be available for this course after August 11, 2023

Kitchens are one of the more challenging spaces to design creatively. Although common to all residential architecture, they are complex rooms, whether single vs multi-family dwellings, or low-income housing vs custom homes. Kitchens are also high-impact areas requiring durability of design, materials, and installation. So how do we approach this? And what are typical pitfalls as well as their solutions particularly in mobility feature kitchens?

Learning Objectives

• Increase skills to create useful and well-designed kitchens for Accessibility & Aging-In-Place in both residential dwellings and common spaces
