| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study is to find and realize solutions to the lack of inclusion of
People with exceptionalities. To create interaction between streetscapes, parks,
naturalistic landscapes, and people with exceptionalities. People with exceptionalities
include people with a range of disabilities such as blindness, autism, and cerebral
palsy. ADA compliance has gone a long way in giving opportunity of access
to people with exceptionalities. These collective groups of people may have
access to streetscapes, and parks, but the interactions in these spaces are slim to
none. People with exceptionalities deserve the opportunity to interact with the
surroundings as all other people do. The research of this Thesis study is based on not
only case studies, scholarly articles and journals, but also interviewing people with
exceptionalities and their acquaintances. This methodology allows the personal
perspectives of the people that will use these spaces. The resulting research is defined
in the adaptive design of different streetscapes, parks, and naturalistic landscapes.
These findings prove as precedent of more inclusive and interactive landscape
designs to come. | en_US |
