Att designa en toalett är inte skitlätt : Hur behov och inkludering samsas vid utformningen av en handikapptoalett

Sammanfattning: This thesis work in information design with a focus on spatial design is about how people's needs, in addition to the natural ones, can be considered in a handicap toilet to include a broader target group. The study is a case study and was conducted together with the research institute Rise Sics, which is a multicultural company with employees of different ages. The empirical material that has been collected is through participatory observations, questionnaire surveys and focus groups. The study's questions are answered with the help of the collected empirical data and of the chosen theories about how a room can be made available through color and light and with principles in interaction design: affordance, signifiers, constraints, mappings, feedback and conceptual model. The aim of the study has been to deliver a design proposal that shows a breadth of inclusion aspects. The hope of the study is that it will inspire a change in other public toilet spaces, as the study has shown a need to change the toilet culture that exists today.
