UNIVERSAL DESIGNS Our Approach to Stylish Accessibility

Universal logo

 

Drees' Universal Designs were designed with comfort and ease in mind - now and into the future. Our Universal Design floor plans are aimed at comfortably accommodating families with all sorts of needs, which can unexpectedly change at any time. Whether you are recovering from an injury, have an ongoing mobility issue, or even have young children in strollers, you'll appreciate the difference of a Drees home. While the accessibility features make these homes notable, it's the whisper-quiet incorporation of these features that make them showstoppers.  Modifications in the home are designed to blend in with the beauty and decor. In other words - accessibility with style.
