Coinciding with #DisabledAccessDay, IKEA recently released a range of 3D-printed add-ons with the goal of facilitating daily-life for individuals with disabilities. The project, ThisAbles offers free downloadable plans for items that can be 3D-printed at your local shop or facility and added onto existing Ikea items and furniture to help make for a more accessible home environment. #DesignforAccessibility #Accessibility

Happy Italian Design Day to all the lovers of Italian design out there. If you are lucky enough to be in Paris, we recommend going to see the Exhibit "Tutto Ponti, Gio Ponti archi-designer" celebrating on of the greats of Italian Design at the Mad Paris.

World Design Day is 27 April 2019 and, for this edition, we want to highlight women designers. Designers who create intelligent, inclusive, sensitive design, whether to make big differences or small ones. Women designers are important contributors to the discourse on global change. All over the world women are designing for better health, justice, human rights—in homes and in cities and for the earth in general—actively widening the conversation about what it means to be a professional designer in this time. Women are working in teams, in communities and with governments to find ways to collaborate and have impact. Yet recognised designers remain predominantly men. Design history has tended to overlook the achievements of women. For World Design Day 2019 we want to highlight women designers who create intelligent, inclusive, sensitive design, whether to make big differences or small ones. The Women in Design theme honors and shouts out to remarkable women designers past and present.
