Michael Graves’ designs for aging-in-place emphasize subtle shifts that enhance flexibility within the built environment. Planning for future changes in lifestyle and care, anticipating growing technological resources, and encouraging all dimensions of wellness we come alongside operators to position new projects for continued campus growth. In a dynamic marketplace with a new horizon, we are proud to be at the forefront with designs and products that reflect the elegance of aging with grace.
Our Accessible Home Furnishings collaboration with Pottery Barn aims to redefine the notion of accessible lifestyle furniture, appealing to a broad audience by integrating novel, functional enhancements that put safety first, while celebrating beauty and quality that all consumers expect.
Michael believed good design has the power to enhance people’s lives. After becoming paralyzed and encountering new challenges in everyday living, Graves devoted the rest of his career to creating more accessible designs. Today, our team continues his legacy by prioritizing dignity through thoughtful details, and embracing the belief that well-crafted spaces can foster well-being.
