» feistyfemale56 - Letter of law vs spirit of law

Interesting article; I found the difference between Universal Design and ADA standards to be the difference between adhering to the letter of the law (ADA) or to the spirit of the law (Universal Design).

Refreshing to know that there are some people out there who see providing access to people of all abilities as the norm rather than the exception.

Good comparison, and the "spirit" frees up the imagination to come up with good human-centered design. Adaptive Environments reprints a well-written article on that here:
