Universal design in landscaping is not just about accessibility; it's about creating spaces that are functional and enjoyable for everyone. Handiscapes specializes in incorporating universal design principles to enhance usability and aesthetic appeal. Learn how our approach benefits families, seniors, and individuals with disabilities, making outdoor spaces welcoming for all.


Key Elements of Universal Design

By using elements like tactile paving, multi-sensory wayfinding, and strategically placed seating, we create landscapes that cater to a wide range of needs. These features ensure that outdoor areas are safe and comfortable for everyone, from children to the elderly. Universal design also encourages social interaction and community engagement by providing inclusive spaces where people of all abilities can come together.


Case Studies

Our projects demonstrate the effectiveness of universal design. For example, a public park redesigned with these principles saw increased use by families and individuals with disabilities, enhancing community engagement. These success stories highlight the importance and benefits of incorporating universal design in landscaping.
