| Description |
Being the kind of nerd I am, I had to analyse this button panel in the elevator at ARoS art museum in Aarhus, Denmark. I think I was overwhelmed at all the options at first. The typography was hard to read - tiny black letters on the matte steel. Kudos to all the Braille. But... why were there "close doors" and "open doors" buttons in two spots? I wonder if the lower set was for someone in a wheelchair or someone who was unable to reach the higher buttons? I didn't think about that at the time that I photographed this panel. That could explain it. But that makes the lower buttons look built-in and not built-in. We know what that means. Not designed for inclusion from the beginning! Kudos, too, to the museum for having signs outside the elevator encouraging people who did not have any special needs (wheelchairs, canes, etc.) to use the stairs and leave the elevator to those who really needed it. |
