Due to the lack of accessibility education in post-secondary design programs, many designers are not aware of how to create accessible content. This results in many users being excluded from viewing or using content daily—on the web, in print, and in environmental spaces. With that in mind, in my graduating year at George Brown College's School of Design, I chose to focus my thesis on spreading accessibility awareness.
I developed the brand “TEA” (Teach Engage Access), created a short informational motion graphic video, wrote and designed a handbook for design students, and put everything together into a process book which covers the process from the early research stages to the final deliverables.
The brand personality is bold, dynamic, vibrant, and unique. These traits guided the direction for the look and feel of my final deliverables.
