Summary: "Universal design" is perhaps the best definition of what we mean by that somewhat awkward expression "barrier-free building", i.e. the integrative use of structures that must be equally suitable for the needs of people with their environs must be equally suitable for the needs of people with and without disabilities, or rather capability impairments. Buildings and their environs must be universally accessible because only this guarantees the integration of all members of society
