While baby boomers' preferences may vary when it comes to their desired housing style (condo, apartment, single-family home, etc.), there are some things they all demand -- universal design, space to host guests, and maintenance-free living. Taylor Johnson client KTGY Architecture + Planning recently outlined boomers' must-haves for the Daily Herald, including snore rooms, oversize gourmet kitchens, and curbless and doorless showers. And KTGY would know -- last month the firm garnered seven honors in NAHB's 55+ Housing Council's "Best of 55+ Housing Awards" competition and also saw principal Manny Gonzalez win "2016 NAHB 55+ Associate of the Year." View the news release for details on KTGY's recent senior-housing awards and Gonzalez's recognition, and read the article in the Daily Herald to learn more about Chicago-area boomers' top design demands.
