Design for all vs. Design for me: the limits of Inclusive Design
Jonathan Hassell is an expert in accessibility and inclusion with over 12 years of experience. He discusses the differences between universal design, which aims to be usable and accessible to all, and personalized design, which can tailor experiences to individual needs and preferences. While universal design has benefits, personalized design allows for more flexibility and creativity to meet different users where they are. Hassell is writing a book that provides case studies and guidance to help organizations implement accessible and usable design for all of their customers in an efficient way. It will include examples from global accessibility experts on transforming organizations.
