“…Defining accessibility is that the quality of a built environment can be accessed by people with physical disabilities or the elderly. In parallel but contrasting, the term barrier-free design is a design concept to make a built environment accessible to people with physical disabilities or older people by removing the architectural barriers present in existing buildings (Sanford, 2016). The UD concept advances more comprehensively as it has the Seven (7) Principles of UD which characterize usable design solutions of products and environments, making this concept is more likely to be embraced worldwide including Malaysia and the Asian region as noted by local researchers (Kadir et al, 2013;Nur Amirah et al, 2018b;Yusof et al, 2016).…”

Becoming an Accessible City in developing countries has mitigating barriers as compared to developed countries. It is comprehensive to non-discriminate PwDs in access and facilities for equal opportunity. Accessibility legislation of different nations has various success in implementing and enforcing Universal Design through regulatory, government initiatives, and planning approaches. ASEAN developing nations have awareness and advocacy, because the fragmentary built environment, resulting in Accessible City concept that has not strived to expectation. Eliciting from interviews of access consultants and city planning regulations from London, Oslo, and Singapore. Conclusively, extraction of inclusion strategies is to be adapted for implementation in Malaysia.

“…El diseño universal promueve un diseño que sea conveniente, accesible y comprensible para todo tipo de usuario, independientemente de sus particularidades, por lo que intenta eliminar adaptaciones o soluciones especializadas, que siempre terminan segregando a algún sector de la población. Acorde a Sanford (2016), para hacer un espacio accesible, el diseño universal se tendría que enfocar en aspectos específicos de la usabilidad, en vez de hacer adecuaciones. Su concepto trasciende el de accesibilidad de las personas con discapacidad para concebir una idea donde la inclusión, en todas sus manifestaciones, forme parte de las políticas urbanas en general.…”

La arquitectura inclusiva escasamente se ha considerado bajo el sustrato de las ciencias neurocognitivas. Generalmente este enfoque de diseño arquitectónico se genera bajo lineamientos funcionales que no consideran niveles más profundos, como los neurocognitivos. Es por esta razón que el objetivo de este trabajo es analizar las implicaciones de las ciencias cognitivas en el diseño arquitectónico, para proponer pautas de diseño que contribuyan a fortalecer la inclusión en los espacios a través de códigos intuitivos. Para este fin, se apoya en un método inductivo, que inicia por una revisión analítica orientada a la arquitectura inclusiva, para contrastar con las propuestas desde las ciencias neurocognitivas, la accesibilidad, los principios de wayfinding y wayshowing y sus fundamentos semióticos. Se concluye que, en el diseño de espacios arquitectónicos, se hace necesario considerar el aprendizaje espacial y el pensamiento a través de patrones, ya que, como se ve, no es lo mismo que el aprendizaje visual y el pensamiento.
