The system builds on our work with Lighthouse International in New York and features a tactile ledge which is easily located by sight-impaired users, and a new typeface developed by our studio to facilitate tactile reading. Both the sign system and typeface were featured in Roger Whitehouse&#8217;s keynote presentation to the International Conference on Universal Design in Kyoto in November.</p>
