Happening now in the Trend + Design Center (Booth 1032-LL)!
Designing for people who are blind or visually-impaired is more difficult than it sounds. It’s not about closing your eyes and testing your design, but adjusting the way we approach a problem by changing the setting in which we solve it. It’s noble to want to design for a specific demographic but making assumptions can sometimes be insulting. It’s like giving someone a gift you think they need without asking what they really need. We hear the term ‘human-centered design’ often. To truly use it is to take time to ask hundreds of questions to the people who know the answers, AKA the end-users, then be willing to experiment with designs and ask even better questions.
