Designing Adaptive Accessories
For the disabled, augmenting objects to fit their needs isn’t about innovation, it’s about surviving a world designed against them. Nowhere else is that more understood than in our Inclusive Design Lab, the space which we’ve been designing adaptive accessories for our devices for the past 9 years –– creating accessory kits like the Surface Adaptive Kit and more 🧑💻.

The following article is a behind-the-scenes look at the work that informed the toolkit. We would love to know what you think below ⬇️
