Adaptive Environments has established a niche in the international
spectrum of organizations and individuals that share a vision
of design-for-all/universal design. Universal design asks from

for as many people as possible. It seeks to consider the breadth
of human diversity across the lifespan to create design solutions
that work for all users.
