Inclusive Tourism
Making tourism accessible for all through user-centered design
THE
PROBLEM
Tourism can be difficult to navigate for people with disabilities due to physical barriers, lack of information, and limited digital tools. Our challenge was to create a solution that empowers all travelers to explore Trieste comfortably and safely.
OUR
APPROACH
We built a user-centered iOS app that provides accessible travel routes, venue information, and real-time assistance features. Through interviews and workshops with people with disabilities, we co-designed the experience to make sure every feature met real user needs.
