design for human diversity
North America's only conference focused on universal housing and neighborhoods, Universal Design Summit 5 (UDS5) continues to provide exceptional content on universal design in housing, sustainable community design, and affordability to create living environments usable by all. At this conference, we will add significant content on remodeling, accessibility and commercial projects.
Better Living Design (BLD) will be a major focus of the fifth Universal Design Summit. Based on the principles of Universal Design, the mission of BLD is to change the way homes and the products that go in them are designed, built and remodeled to better meet the needs of eveyone at every age, life stage and ability.
UDS5 will be held May 6-8, 2013 in St. Louis, Missouri. See you there!
The Ronald L. Mace Universal Design Institute is a non-profit organization based in North Carolina dedicated to promoting the concept and practice of accessible and universal design. The Institute's work manifests the belief that all new environments and products, to the greatest extent possible, should and can be usable by everyone regardless of age, ability, or circumstance.
