Multi-Generational Housing

Shared Living & Built-In Privacy

The volume of multi-generational homes is on the rise largely due to the skyrocketing costs of acceptable senior living communities, cultural values, a surge of adult children living at home and family members desiring to allow parents to age in place. The benefits are seen as shared expenses, avoidance of senior community costs, team childcare, emotional support and safety.

During the architectural design process of a custom home is the ideal time to make a multi-generational living plan for the future of your family. Key considerations are: privacy for all parties, comfort, enjoyment and safety. Depending upon the unique situation, features might include zero entry showers, wheelchair width doorways, handrails, grab bars, a private study, kitchenette, elevator, designated play area, separate entrances or an entirely separate living structure. These flexible homes can be designed during the architectural phase with an extended family in mind with a keen focus on maximizing enjoyment and meeting the needs of all family members.
