This session explores how the ground plane can communicate, guide, and support intuitive navigation through material, pattern, and texture. Using carpet tile innovations developed in collaboration with Gensler and blind architect Chris Downey, the panel reveals how inclusive design creates spaces that are more legible, functional, and human-centered for everyone.
