The entry
Give the ramp a place in the plan.
The ramp location and guardrails were recorded before production. They weren’t left as a decision for after delivery.

Getting home should feel easy.
A single-level home is a good start. But what happens between the place you park and the front door? On a Seattle project Wolf is building with Parkview Services, that route was planned before production started.
Project in progress
This is a look at the site-planning decisions, not a finished-home tour. Completion and occupancy have not been confirmed for this story.
Before delivery
A ramp changes more than the doorstep.
The project’s pre-production notes placed a ramp on the site plan and called for guardrails. The site visit also identified drainage, a nearby rock wall, utility routing and delivery access. These decisions share the same piece of ground.
The ground around it
Look beyond the floor plan.
Survey and drainage work, along with the nearby rock wall, were part of the site review. An entry has to be planned with the property around it.
The work underneath
Coordinate the connections, too.
Utility routing was reviewed alongside delivery access. The site work and the home’s placement need to work together.
These are documented planning items, not a claim that every accessibility feature has been installed or that the completed project has been certified as ADA compliant.
Start with the trip you make every day.
Picture coming home with groceries, heading out with a walker, or opening the door from a chair. Which part would you want us to pay attention to? That’s a more useful starting point than choosing a model and trying to adapt it later.
-
Where you arrive
Parking, drop-off and enough room to get out.
-
The path outside
The ground, its slope and where a ramp could go.
-
The front door
Room to approach, open the door and move inside.
-
Life indoors
The routes and rooms you use every day.
Features are personal. Standards are project-specific.
A ramp or a grab bar can be important without telling you whether a whole project meets a particular accessibility standard. The intended use, applicable requirements and detailed design all matter.
Parkview Services provides affordable housing for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Its housing program describes accommodations tailored to residents; that does not mean every accommodation in its program is part of this Wolf project. Read about Parkview’s housing program.
For your project, tell us what needs to work better. We can discuss entry and interior options, then identify what needs detailed design or standards review. Explore aging-in-place and accessibility planning.
The U.S. Access Board explains where ADA standards apply. Accessibility features alone, or a local building permit, do not establish ADA compliance.
What would make coming home easier?
Tell us about the entry, the rooms and anything you want us to plan around. If you have a property, we’ll start there before narrowing down the homes.
