Enability: Enabling the Disabled
View/ Open
Abstract
Currently, in architecture there is a lack of urgency to design for inclusivity.
There are guidelines put forward to create accessible buildings, but these
guidelines are the minimum. The ADA guidelines, in general, ensure that
all people can use all parts of a building and that people can get required
information to get around a space. There are many kinds of disabilities that
are not accounted for with these bare minimum rules and just as many creative
solutions to include in designs to create a new way to design accessible buildings.
