UNIVERSAL DESIGN: PUBLIC SPACES FOR ALL -- 9


MAde Studio

In the Detroit Edison Academy site, ramps, retention walls and terraced garden beds connect the school to the Dequindre Cut and beyond to a working urban farm.

“The design of public space is an excellent opportunity to exercise universal design as standard practice,” Arquero says. 

“As we work to bring citizens back to streets, plazas, parks and waterfronts of our cities, universal design provides good insights to increase comfort and safety for a diversity of users. It is about inclusive approaches.”
