Principle One: Equitable Use

The design is useful and marketable to people with diverse abilities.

Guidelines:

•  Provide the same means of use for all users: identical whenever possible; equivalent when not.

•  Avoid segregating or stigmatizing any user.

•  Make provisions for privacy, security, and safety equally available to all users.

•  Make the design appealing to all users.

Example: automatic door
