It’s been over a year, and I’m not fully recovered from my knee replacement. I see the wisdom in designing a house like this. Although replacing the toilets and adding grab bars in the bathrooms helps tremendously, there is a lot more that could be done in a house built from scratch. Some of these ideas would work just fine for the ordinary homeowner and would be lifechanging for the handicapped. It’s just a matter of perspective.

I’ve seen a lot of good ideas on “Holmes for Homes” — a Canadian program where a contractor comes in and redoes substandard work.
