Brief:
Design exists to communicate, whether by graphics or some other means. Access Ability 2: A Practical Handbook on Accessible Graphic Design, offers graphic designers alternative, accessible ways of thinking about how to convey information and represent ideas. Informed by an inclusive research process under lead author Adam Rallo, our team of graphic, web, and environmental designers came together to produce this handbook. It has been distributed to thousands of design students, educators, and professionals in Canada, free online, or for a small free in print.
