Its research groups are currently based in the UK (London) and China (Shanghai). Our aim is to promote inclusive design to the largest audience possible through academic and applied research, education, public engagement, and knowledge transfer to industry. Our passion
"Making inclusive design happen everywhere" – Hua D**g
"Making the relationship between inclusive design and sustainable design explicit" – Nicola Combe
"Inclusive design - A bridge between aesthetics and functionality." - Dr Eujin Pei
"Elegant design with and for real people through insight and empathy" – Chris McGinley
"Designing a better future for ALL through understanding, engagement and inclusion" – Farnaz Nickpour


Our process
We adopt an inclusive design methodology which is people centred. We aim to deliver design solutions and research outcomes that are useful, usable, desirable and sustainable. We involve the users throughout the design and research process and take into consideration different stakeholders' interests and requirements. Through multi-disciplinary collaboration, we aim to generate deep research insights and deliver viable real-world design solutions.
