How Interior Design Take into Account Color Blind



                 How Interior Design Take into Account Color Blind
                    In a research article, published in the Pocklington for Professionals, Jacqui Smith discusses various considerations that should be taken by interior designers for color blind persons. In her perspective, interior designers should consider the principle of inclusiveness or inclusive design as they plan their design activities. Making interior designs suitable for persons with sight loss and color blind persons does not necessarily mean that it should be performed in a manner that is different from designs meant for people with proper/good vision. Interior design for color blind persons should not be characterized with features that are immediately obvious, but should cater for the needs of color blind persons, while also ensuring that environments are comfortable.
                  In another research article, Herssens and Heylighen also argue that inclusive design is an imperative and effective strategy that can be used to create better design of environments as well as objects in a manner that satisfies the needs of many people.
                    In addition, research has shown that interior designers can take into account color blind users by implementation of the Universal Color Blind Design. This design approach is not only important as a channel of information transmission but also for people of diverse color vision. Universal Color Design is also meant to satisfy the needs of persons with people who have a challenge for common-type color perception. In her research, Christine Ridgen asserts that interior designers should consider color contrast in order to ensure that their designers do not exclude people with poor color vision. This may involve a combination of major color contrast, for instance: Yellow, green and other dark colors; this creates effective color contrast in a manner that satisfies the needs of diverse user.
