Universal Design is the design and composition of an environment so that it can be accessed, understood and used to the greatest extent possible by all people regardless of their age, size, ability or disability. There is an increased need for lodging facilities that are accessible due to the aging population and an increase in mobility limitations. Rosemarie Rossetti understands the lodging industry from the perspective of someone who uses a wheelchair. Take a roll with her through lodging guest rooms to see common problems and challenges that design, layout, and materials present to people with disabilities and people of all abilities. Come away with solutions that provide more accessibility, greater independence, and increased safety and comfort for guests. Go beyond the ADA requirements and learn about inclusive design for all guests, regardless of their limitations. The goal of this program is to assist architects, interior design professionals, and engineers as they integrate universal design into their future projects.
