Abstract :
[en] The 2019 EIDD Design for All Europe Summer School in Viana do
Castelo, Portugal brought together 20 international doctoral students and design
professionals to explore and apply Design for All knowledge. The program
culminated in a capstone design challenge, during which participants were divided into teams and asked to apply Inclusive Design (ID) principles to address
Viana’s urban planning issues. This paper presents the results of one of the four
teams—outlining the design process, considerations, objectives, and outcomes.
During this challenge, the team followed a prescribed ID process1
, testing its
applicability. By engaging directly with lead user group members and relevant
stakeholders, the team identified creative, pragmatic design solutions to meet
design goals and innovate across people, planet, and profit. Thus, by applying
ID as a people-centered strategy, the team created a conceptual urban design
likely to result in sustainable innovation and resonate across demographics.
