Love this! Tactile wall signage lets people know the layout of the inside, before going in and having to figure it out!
People with visual impairments, when visiting a restroom, will often need to touch more surfaces than sighted individuals in order to locate the same facilities.
Tom Babinszki, an accessibility consultant at Even Grounds, has the solution through his project: tactile 3D-printed restroom maps. These maps are mini replicas of a restroom that you can feel—showing miniature versions of the sink, toilet, paper holder, hand dryer, urinals, and doors. Placed next to the ADA restroom sign, they let you preview the layout before entering, so you can navigate independently with minimal contact with surfaces.
