This blog post advocates raising electrical outlets to 24 inches above the floor, transforming a small design tweak into a big quality-of-life improvement. Traditionally placed near the baseboard, outlets force bending or crouching, which can cause discomfort or risk for those with back pain, mobility challenges, arthritis, or POTS. At 24 inches, outlets align with natural arm reach, easing strain whether standing or seated. This approach supports inclusive design and aging in place, blending seamlessly into interiors without sacrificing style. Even for those without health concerns, it adds everyday convenience, proving that thoughtful, subtle design choices can greatly enhance daily living.
