No one needs to be reminded that they are aging or have limitations. Our role as designers is to create functional, beautiful and safe environments for all of our clients, regardless of circumstances. In this episode we consider replacing aging in place with living in place.

In this episode we learn:
- replace negative terminology such as “grab bars” with neutral phrasing such as “towel bars”
- comfort is key at every age and stage
- when to use contrast and when to avoid it
- how we can do better work for our clients through education
