Accessibility and improved User Experience for all

At Accessibility Scotland 2018 Curt Holst talked about how traditionally accessibility is considered a component of usability focusing on people with disabilities but is often not seen as a powerful opportunity to innovate.

Building upon the work of The Paciello Group and Microsoft, Curt talks about how Barclays uses Inclusive Design to support its aim of becoming the most inclusive bank in the world.

Exclusive Design Principles

At Accessibility Scotland 2018, Vasilis van Gemert described how he flipped the Paciello Group Inclusive Design Principles and turned them into a set of Exclusive Design Principles. Instead of designing exclusively for ourselves, he started to design tailor-made solutions for – and together with – people with disabilities. In this talk, Vasilis will show you the results of these experiments, and share all the insights he gained during his research.
