Summary, etc. This ground-breaking book aims to take a new and innovative view on how disability and architecture might be connected. Rather than putting disability at the end of the design process, centred mainly on compliance, it sees disability – and ability – as creative starting points for the whole design process. It asks the intriguing question: can working from dis/ability actually generate an alternative kind of architectural avant-garde?<br/><br/>To do this, Doing Disability Differently:<br/> • explores how thinking about dis/ability opens up to critical and creative investigation our everyday social attitudes and practices about people, objects and space<br/> • argues that design can help resist and transform underlying and unnoticed inequalities<br/> • introduces architects to the emerging and important field of disability studies and considers what different kinds of design thinking and doing this can enable<br/> • asks how designing for everyday life – in all its diversity – can be better embedded within contemporary architecture as a discipline<br/> • offers examples of what doing disability differently can mean for architectural theory, education and professional practice<br/> • aims to embed into architectural practice, attitudes and approaches that creatively and constructively refuse to perpetuate body 'norms' or the resulting inequalities in access to, and support from, built space.<br/>Ultimately, this book suggests that re-addressing architecture and disability involves nothing less than re-thinking how to design for the everyday occupation of space more generally.
