Inhabit Colorado was born from a conversation between a therapist and a patient in a Denver hospital. While working as an inpatient occupational therapist, Renee was preparing to discharge a patient and began discussing her home environment and long-term needs.
Together, they reviewed a home safety checklist, during which the patient shared that she and her husband had decided to remain in their home as they aged rather than move to a facility. She explained that it took them over five years to renovate their home to be both accessible and still beautiful, largely because it was difficult to find professionals with expertise in both areas.
That conversation stayed with Renee. After leaving the hospital that day, she began reflecting on the gap between clinical insight and real-world home design. Over the following years, she pursued additional training and certifications to better equip herself to support individuals in creating homes that are both functional and thoughtfully designed.
After years of learning, planning, and refining the vision, Inhabit Colorado was founded—built to help people thrive in the places they call home.
