Amazing little book!
Amazing book! Itâs small just 77 pages BUT packed with IMPORTANT INFORMATION, no fillers, nothing but exceptional and very useful information, every single page has pretty images to explain (or that refer) to every single concept and explanation making it even easier to understand, definitely a must have in your collection!

Get it.
We are finishing a basement (including adding a full bathroom) and remodeling a kitchen. Within minutes, I’ve already got tabs in the book and can see why the current layout of the kitchen doesn’t work. This book is full of very useful information and it’s easy to read and understand!

EXCELLENT source for kitchen/bath planning!
EXCELLENT book. I am drawing up a basic floorplanfor a future a accessible home for us. This book has all the allowances listed for both standard and accessible applications for both kitchen and bath design.It has been amazingly helpful. Yes, you can “google” the info as I was before getting this book….but that is quite time consuming. The book is fairly small but has ALL the info you’ll need for your kitchen and/or bath planning packed into it.Highly recommend this book!

Needing guidance for Accessibility in your Kitchen or Bath??
Especially helpful as this booklet shows both right and wrong ways to configure the most used parts of a home for the best access when living with disabilities. I have shared this book with a numbe of Polio Survivors who now plan to also purchase it and study the recommendations. Very Helpful!

I am in the process to build a new home, this guide has been very important in order to understand the Architects’ decisions, speak their language and, of course, made my point when I see something I do not like, even at the construction site.

Essential for any designer. Commit to memory. Guidelines and not rules…sometimes you have to show a customer a reason why the aisle is as “wide” as it is…they then come around to the sensible understanding.
