Never underestimate the power of a raised surface.
Today we talk about braille, one of those silent solutions that make a huge difference for those who need to orient themselves independently.
Designing truly accessible signage isn’t just about adding a pictogram or enlarging a font.
It means putting yourself in the shoes of someone who reads with their fingers.
But where does it really make sense to use Braille?
And when, instead, can it be ineffective or even confusing?
In our work we have learned that accessibility must be designed together with spaces, not on top of spaces.
For this reason we consult with architects, designers and technicians to integrate each solution into the context.
Signage shouldn’t just be seen.
It must be able to be touched, read, understood.
Do you use it in your projects?
Have you ever had to design a system that also included tactile reading?
