Beyond Access
What if we are missing a transformational opportunity to rethink the experience of space by only \u201cchecking the boxes\u201d on accessibility standards? We take a deep dive into the etymology of \u201cnormal\u201d and discuss how this term has propped up power structures that have continued to limit how marginalized bodies experience space. Tune in as we discuss how the built environment can go \u201cbeyond access\u201d to embrace equity and support differences. Our guests are AJ Paron, SANDOW Design Group Executive President and Design Futurist; Joshua A. Halstead, Art Center College of Design and Designmatters Teacher and Design Activist; Matt May, Head of Inclusive Design for Adobe.
