The increasing number of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has alerted many on their education, health and safety, because these children are prone to injuries. Therefore it is very important to provide these children with homes that are educationally interactive, healthy and safe. Many studies emphasized on the importance of the learning environment for autistic children, but none have focused on the idea of inclusive and universal design in houses.
