PLAN TODAY. LIVE WELL AT HOME TOMORROW.
Aging In Place is about creating a home that continues to support you as your needs change. It can mean improving safety and accessibility, making everyday activities easier, planning ahead for future needs, or simply creating a healthier and more comfortable place to live.

Grace In Design helps homeowners and families look at the home differently—considering how its layout, features and furnishings support safety, comfort, independence, wellness and long-term livability.

As a Certified Aging In Place Specialist (CAPS), Grace works with clients to identify priorities and develop practical recommendations that can range from simple changes to larger design and renovation projects.

You don't have to wait for a crisis to start planning for the future.
WHO CAN BENEFIT?
Aging In Place planning isn't only for older adults. It can help anyone who wants to make thoughtful decisions about how their home will support them or someone they care for over time.
 
  • Homeowners planning to remain in their home long-term
  • Older adults who want to maintain independence
  • Families helping parents or loved ones plan for changing needs
  • Caregivers looking for practical ways to improve safety and function
  • Homeowners planning a renovation and wanting to incorporate accessibility now
  • Individuals experiencing mobility or functional changes
 
START WITH A HOME ASSESSMENT
A GID Home Assessment provides a practical review of how well your home supports your current needs and future plans.

We look beyond individual products or modifications to co
nsider how you move through and use the home—from the entrance and circulation paths to kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, lighting and other everyday living areas.

Recommendations are prioritized so you can understand what needs attention now, what can be planned for later, and where thoughtful changes may make the greatest difference.

What may be reviewed:
Entry & Access • Bathrooms • Kitchen • Bedrooms • Lighting • Stairs & Circulation • Fall Prevention • Emergency Preparedness • Everyday Function

WHAT YOU RECEIVE
Depending on the service selected, recommendations may include identified concerns, prioritized improvements, design concepts, product or fixture recommendations, and next-step guidance for planning modifications or renovations.
