Mike Tadros and Linda Knapp review a kitchen designed to adhere to universal access guidelines. Linda is an expert in the field of universal design; she’s a designer with Kraftmaid Cabinetry and has worked on a number of kitchens for Extreme Makeover Home Edition. Mike and Linda tour a kitchen model designed to accommodate people with special accessibility needs. Google SketchUp is used as a tool to visualize the different options, features and benefits. Linda introduces a number of universal access features of this particular kitchen, such as using 12″ deep wall cabinets as a base cabinet for easy reach. Mike explains various SketchUp tools to use for modeling and presenting your designs to clients. For example, he uses the Walk tool to explore the model at wheelchair height, and mounts touch kitchen sink faucets on back or side of the sink.
