In this episode of The Design Duet, we sit down with Edwina to explore the deeply personal journey of designing a home around accessibility. As a primary caregiver for her son, who lives with a rare disease, Edwina shares what it took to make their home not just functional, but comfortable and welcoming for the whole family.

We discuss the key modifications that supported her son’s mobility and independence, the thoughtful design elements that made daily life easier, and the emotional balance between practicality and creating a warm, beautiful space. Edwina also reflects on what she might do differently now, after living in the home, and the lessons learned along the way.

A must-listen for anyone interested in inclusive design, family-centered spaces, and the reality of creating a home that truly works for everyone.
