High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Universal design refers to a broad-spectrum solution that produces buildings, products and environments that are usable and effective for everyone, not just people with disabilities. It emerged from "barrier-free" or "accessible design" and "assistive technology" and recognizes the importance of how things look.

They appeal to a wide range of consumers.

There are many industries in which universal design is having strong market penetration but there are many others in which it has not yet been adopted to any great extent.
