Pottery Barn took on the challenge of housing a CPAP machine used to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and a few other conditions. The result is a stylish nightstand that millions with the condition can use to conceal those pesky masks, cords and hoses while still keeping them within reach.

Michael Graves Design for Pottery Barn Dignifies Accessibility

Essential for some, better for all. “Accessibility” has become as buzzworthy a term as “sustainability,” with many brands attempting to capitalize on the moral arc that bends toward a more egalitarian design scene and consumer market in its slow march forward. But few are as nuanced in the practice as Michael Graves Design.

Accessible design is in demand. Is the home industry ready?

This week, Pottery Barn released a series of new collections that appear nearly identical to its existing Sausalito, Farmhouse and Cayman lines. Closer inspection reveals subtle differences: a dresser with a raised edge that runs along the top, a bed with a built-in bench at the end, a side table equipped with power outlets. For some, these changes offer a functional boost to everyday life—but for consumers with disabilities, they can make a world of difference.
