The ramp tells you that the building is desi

13、gned to welcome those who cant use steps. Or the flush threshold says that wheelchair users will not face insuperable obstacles. Once inside, there are numerous features in every type of building that these days mean it is inclusive, that is to say reasonably convenient for all, not just those regar

14、ded as normal.Given the difficulties and dangers people may have faced in travelling to and arriving at a particular building, it seems as though legislators have made up for problems in the public realm by loading regulation onto building owners, implying that if buildings are acceptable, then ever

15、ything else will be too. Of course this is not the case, not least because of this curious disconnected way of thinking about the built environment in all its forms. The greatest hazards to mobility and use lie in the public arena, not the private, yet legislation and guidance is far more concerned

16、with the latter. In a sense that is a starting point for this valuable publication which is about solutions for the urban environment. Its value, however, lies less in its general proposition about the desirability of inclusive design (with which few would disagree), than in the practical guidance i

17、t offers about how to achieve inclusivity without resorting to a demand for hundreds of detailed new regulations. There is existing legislation and there are existing regulations, but then there are better and worse ways of complying with, and indeed thinking about them. There are also things that c

18、lients and designers know, or need to know, which cannot be covered by law for example strategies for management and maintenance. Even where there are clear regulatory environments, there are still multiple choices to be made which require a common understanding and a coherent framework within which

19、 those choices can be made.This guide provides that framework, based on many years of design, observation and testing. Much of it, quite apart from its specific implications for inclusivity, is rooted in principles of good urban design, without which individual buildings (however well-designed) can

20、scarcely be described as truly accessible. As ever, and as the guide makes clear, design principles need to be understood and deployed in the early stages of design. While it is not always the case, most buildings either include public realm elements or certainly need to respond to them. This guide

21、will help inform that process, in addition to offering guidance on what are sometimes thought of as ancillary issues, but which loom large in the lives of those for whom the built environment has to be endlessly negotiated, rather than appreciated and enjoyed.The principles espoused here are warmly

22、endorsed by Design Council Cabe, which through its design review and design guidance programmes has tried to promote inclusivity as an inherent principle for architects and urbanists, rather than as a late-stage add-on in the design process. This is a welcome publication, and the necessity for it is

23、 not only timely but overdue. Paul Finch, Chairman, Design Council Cabevi Inclusive urban designIntroduction 11.0 Introduction1.1 Purpose of this guideAimsThis guide describes the principles and processes by which the objectives of inclusive design in the public realm can be assessed and delivered a

24、s part of a project.The purpose of the guide is to inform planners, urban designers, landscape architects and their clients how to create accessible and barrier-free public spaces, so that they can be confidently and safely used by all.In carrying out this task, the guide first draws together curren

25、t relevant access standards relating to the external environment, cross-referencing sources other than British Standards where appropriate.Second, the guide also sets out the processes by which these standards become embedded into the design process, especially in the early design stages. Finally, t

26、he guide refers to the contribution that can be made by user consultation. This is a long-neglected aspect of the design process, due to the belief that published standards are sufficient on their own. They are not, and are certainly no substitute for the knowledge that local consultation can bring.

27、The guide will be helpful not only to designers responsible for delivering a quality product, but also to policy-makers and planning authorities responsible for defining quality with regard to public spaces (see Figure 1.1).Figure 1.1: Bradford Pool, Gillespies Landscape Architects, well designed pu

29、idest number of people (Figure 1.2). The premise of inclusive design is that it should be possible to design the physical environment in a way that addresses the needs of disabled people, with consequential benefits for others, including older people and parents with small children.A mainstream appr

30、oachBy adopting a mainstream approach as opposed to focusing on special needs, inclusive design should achieve its purpose unobtrusively and with the minimum of additional features and gadgets. In other words, it should meet the widest possible range of needs by offering choice rather than by focusi

31、ng on a particular group.IndependenceIndependent use of the built environment is substantially determined by the availability of choice. This is critical to disabled people who have developed coping skills over their lifetime, but also to older people with reducing abilities at a time of life when i

32、t is difficult to learn new skills and adapt quickly.Competing considerationsIn designing external public spaces, a balance has to be achieved between competing considerations. These include the consequences of change for historic settings; cultural and traditional use of spaces; and also concerns f

33、or aesthetics and sustainability. These are the challenges that this guide addresses. In so doing, it draws particular but fresh attention to well understood objectives such as effective wayfinding and ease of movement between levels, as well as the need for suitable public facilities and a sense of

34、 safety and comfort. Ideas are explored concerning shared spaces, signage and information, and each with the aim of encouraging greater use and enjoyment of public spaces.Both English Heritages Conservation Principles and the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) provide further advice on unders

35、tanding these values.Future researchMuch more on these subjects needs to be researched and tested, for example, the creation of shared spaces with calm areas sheltered from the noise of traffic.The key challenge for this guide will be the extent to which it can generate interest in inclusive design

36、by stimulating further publications and research.Figure 1.2: The flight of steps have become a destination in themselves.4 Inclusive urban design1.3 SustainabilitySince first published by the Government in 2003, the Sustainable Communities Plan (SCP) has encouraged a holistic approach to urban desig

37、n and planning. Arguably, this objective is carried forward by the 2012 NPPF whose main objectives for sustainable communities relate to long-term environmental and economic success, but also social success. In the words of Sir John Egan:The key components for sustainable communities, as advocated b

38、y Egan, make a direct or indirect reference to the relevance of inclusive design (Figure 1.3). More specifically, useful reference can be made to the principal factors as follows: Lifespan: inclusive design can increase the lifespan of a building or a public space by encouraging adaptability and fle

39、xibility (for example, Lifetime Homes for housing). Social inclusion: inclusive design increases social inclusion for people of all ages, ethnicity, backgrounds and abilities. Density: inclusive design supports the argument for denser urban development with good public transport and encourages bette

40、r pedestrian networks (walkable streets). Quality: inclusive design underlines the need for good quality materials that need less frequent maintenance and replacement.A sustainable community meets the needs of all its citizens so that the most disadvantaged arent left behind.Sustainable communities:

42、The ways in which people experience their environment is greatly influenced by their own mental maps of the area and the extent to which these may be easily understood. These considerations are important for all members of the public and particularly for some disabled and older people.The image of t

43、he city, written by Kevin Lynch in 1960, has become a classic in the field of urban planning. It has particular relevance as the concept of legibility becomes increasingly recognized in the design and appraisal of urban development and the public realm. According to Lynch, the mental maps of people

44、in the urban environment are made up of five distinct elements: 1. paths;2. edges;3. districts;4. nodes;5. landmarks. These elements have a close connection to the factors that should be taken into account in the analysis of urban planning and development and its inclusivity.Table 1.1 summarizes the

45、 relationship between the elements of The image of the city and typical features of an access analysis: such an analysis would be relied upon to support an access statement for planning approval.Access statements for the public realm could usefully combine the elements of The Image of the City and c

46、onsiderations of access and inclusive design. In particular, plans marked up to show access routes and features could also show paths, edges, districts, nodes and landmarks.Table 1.1: Image of the city/Access and inclusive designThe Image of the CityAccess and inclusive design Inclusive design consi
