Architects today hold a unique position to create interior spaces that are not only safe and functional but also welcoming and accessible to all. Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) can be seen as an opportunity to include innovative designs, products, and finishes that create a space that embraces change. With one in four U.S. adults living with a disability and demographics shifting due to aging Baby Boomers, architects and designers face a critical juncture to understand the breadth of options, challenges, and opportunities surrounding this ADA compliance and design. This academy focuses on diverse design methodologies to promote equity for individuals with disabilities today and provides insight into design elements that contribute to a healthier and safer environment, both emotionally and physically. Through these discussions, the academy aims to equip architects and designers with the tools and insights necessary to craft spaces that prioritize accessibility, well-being, and inclusivity, thus enriching the lives of all occupants, both now and in the future.
