Boston, Massachusetts (PRWEB) June 18, 2012

Keeping pace with the desires of a maturing population, John Kelsey, Principal of the award winning interior design firm Wilson Kelsey Design, has achieved the designation of Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS.) We are committed to beautiful design that supports the active lifestyles of those aging in place, notes Kelsey, we are creating spaces that are safe, easy to maintain, flexible, great for socializing and are environmentally conscious. The CAPS designation was developed by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) in collaboration with the NAHB Research Center, NAHB 50+ Housing Council, and AARP to address the growing number of homeowners that will soon require these modifications. CAPS professionals typically include remodelers, general contractors, designers, architects, and health care consultants.
