Disability History Month: Exploring creative new ways to engage with disability, access and design

Disabled artist David Dixon leading a workshop involving paper, cardboard boxes and mark making with a group of students.

In this blog to mark Disability History Month, DisOrdinary Architecture Project Co-Director Jos Boys outlines a new publication aimed at helping architects go beyond building compliance when it comes to disabled people.

We want to create and test an alternative catalogue of ideas, stories and projects that helps architects and others reimagine what truly accessible, enjoyable and beautiful spaces can be. Led by disabled creativity and rooted in lived experience, it aims to subvert the one-size-fits-all accessibility guidance from ‘Part M’ of the UK’s building regulations.
