Universal design, also called inclusive design, is a philosophy that encourages the production of buildings, vehicles and products that are accessible to all people. Whether a user is elderly, not disabled or is currently suffering from a disability, proponents of universal design believe that a fundamental goal of any design process should be broad, inherent accessibility. In developing the philosophy, the Center for Universal Design at North Carolina State University defined a set of principles, a series of guidelines that can help designers ensure that their products are created with accessibility in mind:
Equitable use
Flexibility in use
Simple and intuitive to use
Perceptible information
Tolerance for error
Low physical effort
Size and space for approach and use
With these considerations in mind, every Clock Mobility Van is thoroughly inspected, tested and maintained to adhere to universal design principles. As a BraunAbility dealer, we work closely with them to ensure that our vans are easily accessible and simple to use.
