We just launched Many More Parts than M!
The DisOrdinary Architecture Project has now launched a brand new publication: Many More Parts than M!: Reimagining disability inclusion and access beyond compliance. Many More Parts than M! is a prototype compendium exploring how to engage with built environment accessibility in ways that take us beyond conventional checklists, templates, design guidance and legal compliance.
The aim of the publication was to create a rich catalogue of alternative concepts, stories, artistic work and architectural details that can creatively and critically inform design thinking and practice, and builds on the creativity and criticality of diverse disabled artists, designers, architects, scholars and activists. .
Many More Parts than M! was funded by Arts Council England (ACE) and builds on a competition-winning project for a ‘co-creating equity in the public realm’ design competition called ‘Seats at the Table’ - a collaboration between DisOrdinary Architecture and Re-Fabricate for the London Festival of Architecture (LFA) 2023. By creating additional activities, artworks and a publication out of lessons learnt from the LFA project, the compedium enables disabled artists and architects to aim to influence built environment and cultural sector professionals beyond the Festival itself. It is mainly aimed at built environment and cultural sector students, educators and professionals and is intended for browsing and for following up on some of the ideas, artists and projects included.
