Over the last 13 years, since the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) 1995 came into force, MK Design have been working with the RNIB and JMU Access Partnership to standardise the advice given to establishments on accessible and talking signs to allow them to cater for users, staff and visitors with visual impairment. The aim is to ensure that confusion and disorientation is avoided as much as is possible, and that these physical barriers are overcome. With the RNIB we have written the Code of Practice for Braille and Embossed Signs and contributed sections to the Sign Design Guide.
We are also consultants for the RNIB React talking signs wayfinding and orientation system.
Our main philosophy is to provide “one sign for all” and that by making a sign clear, accessible and easy to read for a visually impaired person everyone will benefit.
