Universal Design
Universal design can be thought of as the broad spectrum of concepts for the creation of products, buildings and environments that feature accessibility for people who have disabilities as well as those who do not. Ronald L. Mace was the architect who first came up with the term “universal design.” The term is meant to denote the principle of designing the built environment and its products in an aesthetic way and to be usable by everyone regardless of disabilities. Universal design’s roots can be traced back all the way to the broader accessibility movement, the concept of barrier-free environments, and assistive as well as adaptive technology.
