Techniques to decorate the house...pleasing grandpa and grandma

I believe that the dream of many people is to have a beautiful big house. But as the retirement age approaches, decoration style or aesthetics may be diminished in contrast to functionality that has to be more important. Living that meets the needs of the elderly requires complete safety, convenience, good atmosphere and easy maintenance. Here are some ideas to decorate a beautiful retirement age home that can be applied in practice.

 There is a door for easy access. and a window with a beautiful view
In a house where elderly people live, thresholds are forbidden for decorating the house. Especially elderly people who are wheelchair users may find it difficult to get in and out and easily stumble. The best way is to create a walkway to connect with the ramp. It will make walking through more comfortable. The window should be wide open a bit. You can see the view outside clearly and enhance the scenery well. Windows and doors must be easy to open and close. The elderly will not have to exert a lot.


 The corridors are wide and there is a fence at eye level.
The entrance to the house is another area to pay attention to, especially the width of the corridor that should be designed to make it easy to walk. Including the walkway around the house, whether it's the patio, balcony or terrace that must be at the same level and smooth. The finishing material should be the softest or most flexible material to prevent emergencies such as falls, and the railing should be installed to maintain stability during the walk. In addition, the fence should be high at eye level, making it clear and visible from outside. Have privacy by choosing a semi-opaque, semi-transparent material. Moving in from the fence is a home garden that should be organized, unobstructed, fresh and calm.


 Design stairs with handrails and lighting.
The staircase of the house is the connection between all the floors of the house. Even if it's just a small space, but there are many essential details that need to be paid attention to.
Therefore, designing a beautiful staircase with proper functionality is a top priority. of home design. For safety around the stairs, there must be handrails. As for the surface area, use a non-slip surface with a distinctive color that is different from other areas for a clear view. It should also be decorated with lamps that provide enough light during the day. 


  Cozy living room.. Everyone's happiness area
The living room is a place where everyone in the house can get together. It is advisable to organize furniture and items in an orderly manner as this is the area where all members spend the most time. Using a different wall color for the floor will reduce the risk of accidental falls and should not be carpeted or mated to allow wheelchair access.


  The bed is high enough. Helps to get up and sit comfortably. 
The bedroom of the elderly should be located on the ground floor to facilitate walking without having to climb stairs. The design emphasizes on simplicity and uncomplicated floors, decorated in soothing tones to create an atmosphere suitable for relaxation. The bed should be fairly high from the floor, making it easy to get up and sit comfortably. The important thing is that the lighting must be sufficient and well ventilated.


  Handrails and rough surfaces in the bathroom are the perfect function.
Bathrooms are the most slippery spots, so pay special attention to them. Designed to be slightly wider for more convenient access. Toilet bowl, suitable height, sits comfortably with handrails to help prevent slipping. The material chosen for the floor must be slightly rough surface tiles, adding anti-slip strips or anti-slip paint can add another level of confidence. But it is best to install handrails on the walls of the bathroom with emergency signals to let outsiders know about the malfunction and come to the rescue immediately.


  The garage is lower than the house for good air without dust.
A house with a garage area should be built next to the house to increase the flexibility of walking to the car. Importantly, the floor of the garage must be designed to be lower than the house to prevent dust from spreading into the house and help prevent respiratory diseases. The floor should be slightly sloped and handrails can help increase your walking confidence.Outside the garage, there should be a sun-proof roof so that you can walk out of the car in all weather conditions.


These are all details that residents should pay special attention to, especially in homes where the elderly live. Don't look at these as just small details and ignore them. Helping each other to provide housing to be safe and reassuring is an important thing that everyone should do.
