How can graphic design, architecture, product design, interior design and other disciplines change exterior sidewalks and walkways, outdoor public eating areas and play spaces, accessible parking, waiting areas and service counters to provide a positive experience for all"
This year, students studying in all design disciplines are invited to submit proposals that demonstrate how existing public spaces in Ontario can be re-designed to be accessible to the greatest number of individuals.
As a starting point, students should consider the requirements of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, and the accessibility standard for the Design of Public Spaces. These mandatory requirements impact areas such as exterior sidewalks and walkways, outdoor public eating areas and play spaces, accessible parking, waiting areas and service counters. Students must consider how to design a positive experience for the greatest number of people possible. Participation is open to all currently enrolled students studying design at the undergraduate and graduate levels in Ontario in a college or university program. All submitted projects must have been completed during the student?s 2016-17 course of study in an Ontario, undergraduate or graduate design program. Projects may be completed independently or as course work, and group and individual projects are eligible for entry.
