Wheel Chair Exercise

These pictures are related to a wheel chair exercise I had to complete with a partner. We went around a building on our campus in a wheel chair and had to complete tasks in the wheel chair so that we would have to experience what other people who really have to use a wheel, would experience. At first I did not think it was going to be a learning experience but when I actually got in the wheel chair and performing the tasks I pointed out everything in my head that was different then walking. I could not fit in some bathroom stalls and turn around, it is extremely difficult to be in a wheel chair and it would be very helpful to have more buildings that are accessible to the needs of people in wheel chairs. It was a very good experience and an eye opener to what I need to incorporate in my designs in terms of accessibility.
