Over the last 150 years, Canada has taken a continuous and ever-changing journey towards greater inclusivity and equality. Its architecture is no different. Recent changes in municipal, provincial, and federal legislation have codified a greater commitment to accessibility within the built environment, while best practices go even further. Integrating accessible design is a key component for creating inclusive environments.
By elevating the human experience through built environments that embody inclusivity, resilience, and connectivity, we can improve the quality of life for all, as well as the value of space for its owners and users.
Join industry experts Lorene Casiez and Jesse Kilmitz of Human Space for a discussion of how architects can create better spaces by incorporating inclusive and accessible design strategies, demonstrated through case studies and examples of best practices.
