This four-foot-wide hallway was designed by a foresighted Canadian, who saw because of her current health status, the possibility of needing a wheelchair in the future. If and when necessary, she could simply remove the decor to allow plenty of room in which to roll. The carpet had been directly glued, minus the sub-carpet, to the floor, allowing for additional ease in wheelchair maneuverability.
