Inclusive design, as shared by the Inclusive Design Group at the University of Cambridge, is defined as “design of mainstream products and/or services that are accessible to, and usable by, as many people as reasonably possible … without the need for special adaptation or (specialized) design.”
Universal Design (UD) is an approach to design that increases the potential for developing a better quality of life for a wide range of individuals. It is a design process that enables and empowers a diverse population by improving human performance, health and wellness, and social participation (Steinfeld and Maisel, 2012). It creates products, systems, and environments to be as usable as possible by as many people as possible regardless of age, ability or situation.
