Inclusive design is founded on the principle of creating environments that are accessible and usable by everyone, regardless of age, ability, or background. It seeks to eliminate barriers and actively prioritise human diversity by placing people at the heart of the design process.
“Neuroinclusivity isn't a design feature to add later - it's a design foundation to build upon from the start”
Every individual, including those with disabilities and older individuals with specific access needs, deserve easy, comfortable, and independent access to and within a public space. Emergency situations, such as fires, should be taken into account to ensure safe evacuation.
The design should embody principles that guarantee equal access and enjoyment of the public spaces for individuals with sensory and neurological differences, such as autism, ADHD, dementia, and other neurodivergent or neurodegenerative conditions. Simultaneously, it should promote inclusivity for all.
Avoid floor patterns that could be mistaken for steps, especially in corridors. Bold and pronounced patterns can be confusing, particularly for individuals who are visually impaired, partially sighted, or have sensory/neurological processing difficulties.
Highly reflective finishes should be avoided due to glare issues and the perception of slipperiness, even with a slip-resistant surface. Large, repeating patterns with bold contrasting colours or those simulating steps should not be used on any floor surface.
