Designing the Ideal Home for Wounded Warriors
IDEO, Palo Alto, California, 2011
Description
Most injured U.S. servicemen and servicewomen returning from war must adapt to a home, even if it doesn’t comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines. These soldiers find workarounds to cope with their surroundings based on individual capabilities and preferences. Clark Realty Capital believed there had to be a better solution. The Virginia-based real estate firm, which partnered with the U.S. Department of Defense on more than $4.7 billion of privatized housing for service members, collaborated with our design firm on a new model for building accessible homes on military installations.
