visitability design

Visitability design refers to creating homes that are accessible and welcoming for visitors with mobility challenges, especially those using wheelchairs or walkers. It involves thoughtful features like at least one wide entrance door, a small step-free path to the main living areas, and an accessible bathroom on the main floor. The goal is to make homes more inclusive, allowing friends and family members with disabilities to visit comfortably without requiring extensive modifications. This approach benefits everyone by fostering greater accessibility and social connection within the community.
