Universal Design In Building: Discussion
Ms Ruth O'Reilly:
It is floor space that needs to be designed in the right way so that people can use all the different spaces in their home and move around it easily. It is good design compared with the additional floor area, but if one cannot get the additional floor area from the start, then one cannot achieve good design.
