Do you wish to utilize all the available space of your home, even outdoor space? Below are some questions to ask yourself before you start:

Q2. Do you know of anyone (family or friend) who has special needs and might be frequenting your place?
For instance…your mother comes over every Sunday for dinner and is in a wheelchair. Take into consideration how a wheelchair or walker would handle on your lawn.
How would a wheelchair user get from inside to your outdoor kitchen? Are there steps leading down to your yard? If anyone has special needs, a smooth transition from indoors to outdoors is required. There are great natural stone and outdoor tile options that allow this transition to happen.
During the design planning process remember to be realistic and consider who will be using the space!
