Residential Portfolio-universal Design; Streamwood, IL

WINNER 2021 ASID DESIGN EXCELLENCE AWARD – UNIVERSAL DESIGN

Our client wanted to remodel the bathroom to allow for wheelchair accessibility to care for an aging husband. By relocating the door to the entrance of the toilet room, we were able to create a stunning “roll-in” shower to accommodate his needs. We chose porcelain tile that looks like Carrera marble with a slip-resistant finish to ensure the clients safety.We worked with the in-home care providers to design a bench that was the perfect height for the homeowner and carefully placed every plumbing fixture withing reach to allow comfortability to the client. We fast-tracked the project and completed it start to finish in 3 weeks to prepare for clients husband’s return home from the stroke recovery care.

Wheelchair Friendly Bathroom Designed by IPD
We provided a freestanding soaker tub for the non-wheelchair bound homeowner. We maximized the open space by selecting a shared vanity with two sinks and by adding a chandelier for ambiance. All in all the room was improved in many ways to ensure comfort and contentment among both of the clients. The shower includes two handheld sprayers, grab bars, and a standard, daily shower with individual controls. We designed a glass partition on hinges that allows full wheelchair access when needed.
