SEGD’s Global Design Awards—graduate thesis

Design Within Reach thesis—finalist in the student category

For the second year in a row, John’s graduate thesis Design Within Reach: Interpreting Guidelines for People with Disabilities in the Museum Environment was a finalist in the student category. He believes as an institution for public use, museums should factor all audiences of all abilities when designing a museum, creating public spaces suitable for visitation by the blind and people with low vision, the deaf and hard of hearing, and people with mobility issues. A public space that considers all users allows for a better visitor experience for all.
