Inclusive Housing Stock Plans

LifeHouse Front Exterior

Project Description

The Inclusive Housing stock plans project is intended for people looking to build homes that work well for everyone, including those living with various abilities and living circumstances.

The IDEA Center and our partners developed these plans to help fill the gap in the current single-family housing stock, which lacks homes designed for the lifespan, aging-in-place, and accessible to people with disabilities.
This website organizes the plans into several base models of varying affordability, each of which has one or more variants offering a different number of stories, bedrooms, or bathrooms. Each of the base plans below has one or more variations available to fit different needs. Each variation provides easy-to-read consumer plans as well as large-format dimensioned plans that can be taken to a local design professional for further development based on your site and local codes.
Select a base model below to see variants, and to download both the consumer and dimensioned plans.
