Park to have a UNIVERSAL DESIGN, no segregation of the able & the differently abled users, include ALL
“All Abilities” Children Park Beach Road - Existing Park
The Premise : Access is not only a basic human right; it is an important part of ensuring a high quality of life.
Types of Differently Abled Users The Focus :
• Visual Impaired
Approachability
• Hearing Impaired of SPACE
Accessibility
• Physical Disability
& Usability
• Mental/Cognitive disability
Sensory Stimulation : Perception of Space & Surroundings
Key words : For a differently abled person, the other senses are sharper
& more developed, which help to overcome the impairment
Accessible : ability to access for all users
Inclusive : children of multiple abilities can play together–not just along side each other.
Universal : design solution that produces an environment that is usable by everyone
The Aim :
Flexibility – Designs should be adaptable to the user's unique pace and needs
Equity and dignity – Provide the same means of use for all users, identical wherever possible; equivalent when not. Avoid
segregation. The design which appeals to all users.
Comfort – Designs are able to be used efficiently and comfortably
Safety – Designs minimize hazards and provide warnings where required
