The Adapted Building for the Blind – Case Study

In contemporary Poland, disability is no longer a taboo subject. Both in legislative solutions and in public awareness, including through scientific research, many positive things are happening in our country. The author of the account is an architect: a scientist and an academic teacher. For her, the greatest value in acquiring knowledge and in its disseminating lies in, on the one hand, cooperation with foundations working for the benefit of people with disabilities and, on the other hand, activities in associations of professionals who have an impact on the quality of the built environment. (the author is the head of the Silesian branch of Association of Polish Town Planners and is a member of Polish Ergonomics Society).
