ACCESSIBILITY CULTIVATING ACCESSIBLE ARCHITECTURE FOR ALL:

AN INTERVIEW WITH STEVE WRIGHT BY HAWA ALLARAKHIA, M.ED.

Q Can you provide some background on the inspiration to develop a Universal Design course that focuses on architecture and cultivating a built environment that is accessible to all?

A I have been a journalist for nearly 40 years, and all of that time I have covered both the built environment and the rights/needs of marginalized people.

Combing those into a survey course that educated future architects/urban designers on universal design was a natural progression.

I have worked with town planners and as an urban designer. 

I frequently lecture on access for all at the American Planning Association.
