Overview
Join the ICE West Midlands for an inter-institutional workshop exploring the concept of invisible design and how human factors, accessibility, and inclusive thinking play a critical role in creating systems, environments, and products that work seamlessly for everyone.
This session will highlight how challenges in usability, accessibility, and human interaction often only become visible when things break down and what engineers and designers can do to anticipate and mitigate these issues.
This event is jointly supported by leading professional institutions and is aimed at engineers, designers, human factors specialists, and anyone interested in improving user experience and inclusion in the built environment.
