We encourage our Senior Living and Residential clients to use warmer and friendlier grab bars instead of stainless steel grab bars that look and feel like a hospital! We looked high and low for affordable but great looking grab bars that look right at home in a residential setting. One of these 36” grab bars is only about $60, a bargain when you consider this is one of the few parts of a building you touch!
People often ask us if Vessel does residential architecture. Answer: Every day! Though we design a few very special single-family homes, we spend a lot of time designing Senior Living buildings where our elders can enjoy a dignified home-like environment. A big part of that is offering Accessibility features that don’t feel institutional.
Because really - when was the last time you heard anyone say, "You know, those stainless steel bars really warm up the place, don't they?"
