Thanks Helen, this looks like it could be a valuable training tool. Do you
know if RIBA have any plans to make it available on DVD format, for use at
presentations and conferences etc?
Best regards

Dear all
I hope you’ll be very interested in this video that I was involved in
producing at RIBA. It was originally intended for students of architecture
but we’ve shown it to practitioners, access consultants, clients and
contractors and they’ve all found it useful, informative and inspiring. I
hope you have a chance to watch it and feel free to show it to others or
pass it on. It focuses on the experience of building users and building
managers, particularly including those with disabilities. It should be
extremely valuable to anyone working on a building project.
Best wishes
Helen

Conversation: RIBA film on Youtube. Inclusive Design.
Subject: RIBA film on Youtube. Inclusive Design.
RIBA film available to watch online “Inclusive Design: creating a user’s
world”.
http://www.youtube.com/user/RIBAVIDEO
This film is intended to be a highly useful tool for student and practicing
architects/designers, clients, planners and others involved in the built
environment. The role and relationship of the architects, the client, the
user advisors, access consultants, and other members of the design team are
examined in the film (clips 1 to 7). The film provides viewers with
differing practical examples of inclusive design.
The film features three projects:
1. The Roundhouse in London, a Grade II Listed building, refurbished as
a public Arts venue.
1. The Eden Project, in Cornwall, a well known, large-scale and complex
visitor attraction.
1. The Willows, in Wolverhampton, a new school under construction, that
will bring together the population of a primary school, a special
needs school, and a community facility on one integrated site.
….How do we design a school environment for a local Somali population?
….How do we turn a visually attractive venue such as Eden, into an
enjoyable and worthwhile place for those who are visually impaired?
….How do we reconcile a Grade II Listed Arts Venue into an accessible venue
for wheelchair users, and maintain a highly fashionable and tempting place
for young people?
This is a free resource so please forward this link to websites,
colleagues, teachers, students, clients.
Watch in lectures/seminars….
Watch during lunchtime as Continuous Professional Development…..
Watch in meetings….
Information pending on www.architecture.com <http://www.architecture.com/>
regarding support documentation e.g. Teachers' Learning Notes. A subtitled
version of the film will be online soon.

have limited stock and may not be able to meet requests for DVD format.
