Designing Inclusive Museum Spaces: A Study on Spatial Strategies for Sensory Engagement and Accessibility for People with Visual, Auditory, and Physical Disability
Abstract: Museums have evolved from conventional spaces of display into dynamic environments that promote learning, cultural exchange, and public engagement. Despite this transformation, many museum environments continue to present physical, sensory, and cognitive barriers that limit participation for individuals with visual, auditory, and physical disabilities. Inclusive museum design therefore requires a shift from accessibility as an added feature to accessibility as a fundamental design principle embedded within spatial experience. This research …
