While these fantastic 'Intro to Design Accessibility' posters have been around for quite some time, I think it serves as an important reminder to seasoned designers & a handy introduction to newcomers to the field. Accessibility in product design is often ignored, overlooked and deprioritised, which is disappointing to see. Accessibility isn't a "nice-to-have" feature in product, it's absolutely essential. We can all start taking steps today to ensure that accessibility requirements are part of our everyday workflow. Not only are these standards required by law in a lot of regions, but they're hallmarks of Good Design & vital to designing inclusive products that can be used by as many people as possible. It's not hard to do from a technical standpoint, and it can make a world of difference for a lot of folks. For more detailed information around AA & AAA standards, you can start by having a look through the WCAG 2.1 guidelines here: https://lnkd.in/d5SuZydr Posters brilliantly curated by the UK Home Office, credit to them. #ux #design #accessibility #inclusion
These are great standards for any design—to your point about accessibility being essential. The overlapping advice across the posters shows how implementing these standards creates content that’s more accessible for everyone. For example, avoiding idioms also makes content more accessible across languages and cultures.
Amazing info. It's true that designers and stakeholders keep this important thing deprioritized. Thanks for pointing out this important topic in the form of posters. Applaud. 👏 🤟

1yPlease, could the poster for deaf or hard-of-hearing not conflate the two and then provide more of a breakdown on captioning?
