Every Bath Designer Should Consider Safety, Comfort and Sanitation

      Design considerations for aging-in-place, accessible spaces and adaptable dwellings have become the rule and not the exception.

 categories—safety,comfort and sanitation—one can develop best practices for design of any bath.
