What does it mean to read art books as a person with visual impairment? Trigger Design has collaborated with Beyond Vision International (BVI) to present a multi-sensorial experience titled Accessible Sights. In this talk, the team will share what goes into the process of designing an audio-tactile guidebook, while also proposing new ways of communicating art to include persons with visual impairment.
