PROJETO PARTICIPATIVO DE SINALIZAÇÃO ACESSÍVEL PARA A REITORIA DA UFPB

Abstract

This project came about through an extension research - PROEXT 2018 – by means of a design of accessible signaling systems, for be implemented on the rectory’s first floor of the of the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB) was created through a project of accessible signaling systems. The research had its diagnostic stage and project guidelines finalized in December 2018, followed for the continuation and executive detailing in 2019. Its accomplishment was necessary for the degree of difficulty of the space’s legibility of the building located in Campus I, João Pessoa, Paraíba. Given its highly complex needs program, it was necessary to clipping the study in only one floor, allowing the deepening of the diagnosis and recognition of the building. Its main objective was to understand the demands of disabled and non-disabled users to propose solutions based on universal design and accessibility normatives, such as NBR 9050 (ABNT, 2015) and Law 13,146 (BRAZIL, 2015). The diagnosis stage was developed through visits, followed tours and semi-structured questionnaires. After the bibliographical review and recognition of the empirical object, there was the design stage with emphasis on community participation through workshops. The partial result of the first year was the prototyping of 144 real-scale plates and one of the proposed tactile maps, the pagination of tactile floors, as well as the organization guidelines of the systems for the deepening and continuity of the project that would support the right of to come and go from the community equally.
