Inclusive Design related to Vision Impairment
For the depot project, we first had to research different topics to get contextual information that is useful to this project. Our team did inclusive design related to vision impairment. I researched a commercial case study and found a school for the blind in New Mexico where they designed the interior to be very helpful to the different stages of blindness of the students attending the school. Using colors, ceiling height changes, control of light, and textural features on walls, the students had confidence walking through the school and know where to go and how to get there with all these features.
I also talked about the tactile museum in Prague, and how it was designed for the blind. Brail was written down and the art works were pieces that you could hold and touch.
