Principles of Universal Design

Universal Design principles aim to create products and environments accessible and usable by everyone, regardless of age, ability, or background. This involves designing spaces and tools that accommodate a wide range of needs without requiring adaptations or specialized solutions. Key principles include equitable use (beneficial for all), flexibility in use, simple and intuitive design, perceptible information, tolerance for error, low physical effort, and appropriate size and space for approach and use. Overall, these principles promote inclusivity, ensuring that everyone can navigate, understand, and benefit from designs easily and comfortably.
