Description: One of the essential benefits of universal design is that it recognizes the rich diversity of our population and serves us all. By helping design professionals transcend the restrictive "code compliance" mindset that can straitjacket the imagination, Beautiful Universal Design shows that it is possible to give free reign to individual expression and originality while finding creative design solutions that work for everyone.

Illustrated with full-color photographs showing universal design concepts in finished settings, the book also features case studies of accessible design installations for residential and business spaces, including specific examples of library, airport, stadium, and courthouse design.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 179-182) and indexes.
