Rosemarie Rossetti is in the early stages of designing the landscape for her new home, the Universal Design Living Laboratory.

Rosemarie says that "This design process will be a learning experience for me and the
landscape architect, Bill Gerhardt of GreenScapes Landscape Architects
& Contractors. We are both horticulturists, yet neither of us has
much experience designing with wheelchair accessibility in mind. With
my nine years experience as a wheelchair user, I will bring insights to
the table regarding the slope of the property, width and materials used
for the walkways".
