- 2. Jeanette Knudsen I am a left-handed kid who grew up in a right-handed world….frustrating!! Along the way I discovered there’s a better way to live! Through DESIGN, my home as well as yours can be CHANGED to meet OUR needs. Not the masses!! This is why I specialize in Universal Design, because it helps me and all the other “different” individuals out there. It also allows for Aging in Place, or as I like calling it, Design For Aging. This type of design would have helped my grandmother by preventing the devastating fall she took in her home that changed her life. My hope is to never see to another family experience the heartache we felt because her beloved home couldn’t accommodate her changing needs. My goal is to teach you the tools so you may make your home function-able, efficient, AND beautiful! Oh yea…I’m a wife, mom and grandmother. Love it…. www.designforalifespan.com
