The 7 Principles of Universal Design | Ed Roberts Campus

[@kummer45]

Universal design MUST be one of the basic principles in formal parametric architecture. The other set of principles is the primitive future by Sou Fujimoto applied to formal parametric architecture. ADA and OSHA principles must be essential starting point too.

God bless whoever came up with this concept!

The person doing this should be in a wheelchair and show how they navigated to the campus on Bart and into it. Also show bathrooms and kitchen.

@Quack it’s quite hard to tell but I think the ramp has rest points (where it becomes level) to mitigate the how steep it is. Still might not be enough it’s hard to say from a video I guess.

All good. But using IKEA directions as an example of simple and intuitive to follow is questionable 😁

[@charrwin9092]

Disability rights movement? Last I checked, nobody has the right to have all their "needs" catered to by the rest of society

[@psychstudentrip]

the design of this building isn’t about “rights”, it’s about building a building that everyone can use effectively disability rights is more about job discrimination, housing discrimination and health discrimination, among other things. disabled people still work in order to earn a living, it’s just that our society’s framework disadvantages disabled people in many ways.

[@claytonkristiansen47]

@@psychstudentrip I see your point. Makes sense

[@oggyreidmore]

The preamble to the US Constitution outlines five charges of government responsibility: Establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for a common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure freedom for ourselves and future generations. It is clear that certain people being excluded from society by design is not justice, nor does it provide for their general welfare, nor does it promote freedom for these people. Disability rights are civil rights, which everyone deserves. Not to mention the fact that everyone is at some point in their lives disabled. Either when they are infants and need 24/7 monitored care, or when they become injured, or when they get old and lose their abilities. So this applies to everyone.
