NEWS FROM THE

CANADA
Winnipeg
Adopts Universal Design Policy
The
City of Winnipeg has endorsed a Universal Design Policy, File CR-3
(Vol.5). ‘That the City of
Winnipeg will ensure all new construction and/or major renovations to
buildings, exterior environments, as well as purchases and new
developments in services, products, or systems that are funded in whole or
in part by The City will follow Universal Design criteria...’ This news
and the following report come from Gail Finkel, an advocate and consultant
in Winnipeg, Canada. She notes that many people and organizations have
been involved over the years to influence the endorsement of this policy.
She
says, ‘Can you believe this? This
policy will impact how buildings and outdoor spaces are designed and
built. That is a great
victory in itself, but this policy does so much more.
For years we have been pushing for universal design to be seen as
having broad application beyond architecture.
This policy does just that by including items such as
transportation systems and vehicles, programs and services, tender
documents, products, and communication.
This policy even includes a component to act as a screen in the
budget planning sessions. I
am very proud to be a Winnipeger.
The
heart of the policy is an evaluation process that staff and contractors
will use to see how well their proposals meet the intent of universal
design and the range of functional requirements in the community. Each department will designate a universal design specialist.
At this moment the city is developing the teaching modules,
preparing for sessions to train the trainers and workshops to implement
universal design and use the evaluation form.
This
latest push to transform a research document into a systems procedure came
about through the determination of the Inter-Organizational Access
Committee, a small grass roots organization composed of people with
disabilities, organizations, designers, and government representatives.
We went out and got public support, followed by negotiations with
the City of Winnipeg’s Access Advisory Committee (AAC).
With their support, the AAC then mediated with the civic
departments, staff, and councilors. The
result was that on December 12th, 2001, the City Executive
Policy Committee proposed Council adopt this policy, which it did by
unanimous consent.
Through
this policy the City of Winnipeg has accepted responsibility to put its
effort and funds into those items that are usable by the range of people
in our community. For more
information contact Judy Redmond, the staff person for the The City of
Winnipeg Access Advisory Committee at: jredmond@city.winnipeg.mb.ca>

EUROPE
European
Disability Forum Promotes Design-For-All
Design-for-All
was the theme of the high-level roundtable meeting celebrating the
European Day of Disabled People in Brussels on December 3, 2001. Sponsored
by the European Commission and the European Disability Forum, the event
was a focal point for the creation of a continuing, Europe-wide campaign
for the adoption and implementation of Design-for-All principles in all
areas of planning, design, manufacture and service delivery.
‘Design-for-All’ means designing, developing and marketing
mainstream products, services, systems and environments to be accessible
by as broad a range of users as possible and is the term more frequently
used in Europe to describe the approach that many people call universal
design.
In
preparation for this roundtable, eight National Disability Councils held
meetings prior to the European Day, and their conclusions added to the
debate of the round table. The conclusions from the December 3rd
meeting and the meetings held in Greece, United Kingdom, Luxembourg,
Germany, Finland, Italy, Spain, and Denmark are also available on the
website at: http://eddp.edf-feph.org/edf/home.jsp?lang=en.
Prof.
Hubert Froyen, Professor of Architecture in Belgium and Director of
Education for the European Institute Design and Disability, ended his
summary at the Roundtable with the following statement,
‘As an architect and as an academic however I’m more careful
and more critical, not at all about the basic concept of ‘Design for All’,
but about the optimal educational and professional strategies to follow.
Some
aspects to take into account:
-
A first and most fundamental ‘sine qua non’ for ‘Design for All’ is the intensive user participation of (disabled) people in the design process.
-
Architects and designers in general have to accept this fundamental ‘symmetry of knowledge’ to be shared with (disabled) users and they have to structure the design process accordingly.
-
For design students the ever expanding universe of fantasy and the growing technical possibilities to create virtual realities should be counterbalanced with powerful and elegant real world narratives and with design projects in respectful and in joyful collaboration with real users.
-
After the initial creative process of ‘Design for All’, the construction process and more important even the lifelong process of adaptation and improvement of the built environment should be carefully monitored, ‘to the benefit of all’.’
The
website includes a Forum for discussion, the results of polling on several
questions, e-cards that can be sent while promoting Design for All, and
winners of the Breaking Barriers Design Awards. See:

University of
Reading Developing an ‘Access Knowledge Map’
The
Built Environment Working Group of the Disabled Persons Transport Advisory
Committee (DPTAC) has recently commissioned a major piece of work to be
undertaken by the Research Group for Inclusive Environments at The
University of Reading to develop a comprehensive Access Knowledge Map of
access design guidance.
The
Knowledge Map will be a ‘one stop shop’ for advice and information on
available and appropriate national and international guidance on designing
and managing environments for disabled people.
It will consider information available in the built, transport,
urban and rural environments.
Working
in conjunction with an Advisory Panel consisting of representatives from
the Access Association, the DTLR, Royal Holloway College, Movement for
Innovation and RADAR the Research Group are in the process of gathering,
collating and reviewing design guidance which is currently available, or
likely to be available in the near future.
A significant feature of the Knowledge Map is that the guidance
documents will be evaluated against the most recent standards of good
practice found in BS 8300 and Inclusive Mobility.
The
completed Knowledge Map, which will be available on the DPTAC website, www.DPTAC.gov.uk
will offer busy professionals, users, organisations representing disabled
people, building managers and owners and government bodies the opportunity
to find out what information is available and its relevance related to
current thinking and good practice.
The
project, which started in October, will be completed in June 2002.
If you would like to suggest documents for inclusion in the
Knowledge Map or have ideas on how you would like the project to be
developed please contact Rachael Luck on: Tel: 0118 9316734 Text: 0118 986

UNITED

Access to
Design Professions: E-Mentoring for Designers with Disabilities
Access
to Design Professions, a project of Adaptive Environments Center in
Boston, Massachusetts, is establishing mentorships between design
professionals and students or entry-level designers with disabilities who
are interested in design. The project will adapt the traditional
one-on-one model of mentoring to an international, contemporary electronic
format, through the Internet. The
ultimate goal of this E-Mentoring is the recruitment and support of
individuals with disabilities in design professions in order to improve
design for all
people.
E-Mentoring is supported in part by the National Endowment for the
Arts
(NEA). Full details on E-Mentoring are available on the project
website
at <http://www.adaptenv.org/accessdesign>.
Mentors
will be experienced designers who guide and encourage student protégés
to grow and excel. Adaptive
Environments will facilitate contact between the mentors and protégés,
and each pair will communicate via e-mail.
Protégés
will benefit by an increase in knowledge, by gaining contacts with the
profession, and by devising strategies for attaining personal goals.
Mentors will have the satisfaction of sharing personal experience
and knowledge, and may have fun in sharing a protégé’s curiosity,
enthusiasm and personal growth. Mentors and protégés will participate in “breaking the
ice”, dispelling myths about both disability and design.
Access
to Design Professions was initiated by Adaptive Environments in honor of
the late Ron Mace, FAIA, the architect who first articulated the concept
of universal design. Ron had
hoped that more people with disabilities would be encouraged to enter
design professions, and that designers with disabilities could establish a
network of mutual inspiration and support. Early in the project, 33
designers with disabilities from around the world were questioned about
their professional education and development. They spoke about mentors in
their lives. The overwhelming
majority expressed an interest in mentoring students or new practitioners
of design, and in being part of an international network.
The summary of the interviews and other background on Access to
Design Professions can be found on the project website. An invitation to
join the International Network of Designers with Disabilities is also
posted.
A
number of these designers were interviewed again, and are profiled in a
book, Building a World Fit for People: Designers with Disabilities at
Work, that is funded in part by NEC Foundation of America and will be
released later this spring.

participate in an e-mentoring relationship, see the project website, <http://www.adaptenv.org/accessdesign>,

Center for
Universal Design - Universal Design Homes Program
The
Center for Universal Design with the collaboration of AARP is nearing the
end of a 24-month universal design project, which has provided universal
design, training, and consulting services to the Casino Reinvestment
Development Authority of Atlantic City, New Jersey. The project has three
initiatives: Universal Demonstration Home, Universal Homes for Atlantic
City, and Home Modifications. The overall goals of the project are to
provide universally designed homes and neighborhoods in Atlantic City and
to allow individuals with disabilities to remain in their homes. As a
result of this project, CRDA and Atlantic City can become national models
for creating environments that support users of all age ranges and ability
levels while helping their citizens at the same time. Here are highlights
of the Universal Demonstration Home; more details on the other two program
components will be reported in future issues.
Universal
Demonstration Home
The
CRDA’s Universal Design Demonstration Home will show how to build
universal housing that can be enjoyed by everyone but can really benefit a
growing number of households: older households or households with a
disabled family member. Because this group will continue to grow for the
next 50 years, builders need to include universal features to keep pace
with this changing customer base.
Fortunately,
the features that benefit these households also benefit many others. All
of us can appreciate smooth, stepless entries, covered porches, wider
doors and hallways, and convenient storage and appliances. The house will
also demonstrate convenient and flexible kitchen and bathroom designs such
as sitting workspaces and curbless showers. The universal home will have
the latest in home automation as well as simple features such as a package
shelf to ease entry with arms full of packages. The 4,000 square foot
Universal Design Demonstration home will showcase a range of universal
design features that homeowners can incorporate into new homes and
renovation projects. The home will also contain architectural products,
appliances, and fixtures that add convenience, ease-of-use, safety, and
extra value to homes.
The
Universal Design Demonstration Home in Atlantic City, New Jersey to be
open for viewing in 2002 beginning in March. Visits will be possible for
individuals as well as groups who make arrangements in advance for
viewing, tours, and meetings during 2002. In collaboration with RNS
association, the home will be open to the public during July and August
2002 for special viewing. Important audiences include all households,
particularly those with older or disabled members. Families considering a
new home or a renovation will be particularly interested in the features
and products in this house. Interested
disciplines include representatives from the housing and design industry,
the disability community, the health care system, and the aging network,
and faculty, teachers and students in these respective fields.

Residential Challenges. The competition’s goal was to solicit ideas on
smart-aging residential design. Winners were announced at an open house
held at the NAHB Research Center on January 4, 2002.
The
competition offered students two design problems from which to choose. The
first focused on renovating a group of six rowhouses for a city’s
elderly population. The second focused on designing a new dream home for a
forty-something, professional couple to address both present and future
needs.

The
competition was funded under a cooperative agreement between the NAHB
Research Center and the U.S. Administration on Aging. Dr.
The
Center received over 90 submissions from large universities, small
colleges, and technical schools from across the country. Jury members, who
met in early January to select the winning, runner-up and honorable
mention entries, reviewed all submissions based on their creativity,
buildablity, and livability.
Winners
will receive cash awards and be invited to attend NAHB’s International
Builders’ Show in Atlanta in February, where they will be formally
recognized for their accomplishment. In addition, they will be introduced
to product manufacturers to facilitate the launch of new products and
technologies onto the seniors’ housing market. Winners will also be
encouraged to attend the 2002 Seniors’ Housing Symposium in Orlando in
early May, where their designs will be unveiled as virtual homes, enabling
builders from around the world to visit the homes electronically.

Access
Currents, the Access Board newsletter of September/October 2001, detailed
a number of requirements and resources that are invaluable in preparing
for such disasters and emergencies. The following edited excerpt is a
brief glimpse of the information that you can find on the Access Board
website at: <http://www.access-board.gov/evac.htm>.
The
Design Requirements for Accessible Egress that are part of the Board’s
ADA Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG), as well as model building codes,
life safety codes, and state access codes contain requirements for
accessible egress and emergency alarms. Requirements for accessible
routes, such as width and the treatment of elevation changes, are applied
to egress routes to ensure access for persons with disabilities, including
those with mobility impairments. ADAAG also addresses emergency warning
systems and requires that they include visual appliances to alert people
who are deaf or hard of hearing.
Multi-story
buildings pose a particular challenge to accessible means of
Further
information on these or other ADAAG requirements is available through the
Board’s toll-free technical assistance line and its website. Information on other building requirements is available from
the model code organizations, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA),
and state code entities.
