Applied Design Works has collaborated with the Braille Institute to develop a "hyperlegible typeface" for the visually impaired community. https://www.dezeen.com//atkinson-hyperlegible-typeface-a/
We are so pleased to announce that we have relocated our office! Not very far to be fair, but we feel like we have moved up in the world (precisely one story).
Our designers have recently been thinking a lot about accessibility, and more specifically how to make digital media accessible to everyone. While technology has moved forward, ADA hasn’t kept up, designers can take an active role in keeping universal design in mind thought an exhibit. https://www.nbcnews.com//ada-turning-30-it-s-time-it-inclu
Here at EDX we are finding safe and creative ways to get our work done and #socialdistance Very excited about some upcoming projects and seeing our coworkers (masked) faces!
Thank you Harpers Ferry Center for the shout out!
Explore our exhibits from the comfort of your own home! 130 million years of geologic time unfolds in the Fossil Discovery Exhibit, located in Big Bend National Park. Fossil replicas, custom murals, and life size bronze skulls bring to life this ancient environment. The display also highlights three of Big Bend's fiercest former inhabitants- Deinosuchus, Pterodactyl, and Tyrannosaurus Rex. ... Which fossil is your favorite?
Here's an update on our diorama for Wind Cave National Park: It's no surprise that our baby bison is cuter than ever! Which exhibit element are you most excited to see come to life? Tell us in the comments below.
Breathe in, breathe out. These photos take us back to the tranquil beauty of this remote West Texas park (from the comfort of our own homes!). The Rio Grande Village Visitor Center sits on the edge of the Rio Grande, the river whose bend gives Big Bend National Park its name. It's location makes it a premier spot for birding and other wildlife sightings, but it is also a unique point of cultural reflection as well. EDX designed exhibits that highlight the ongoing efforts be...tween the US and Mexico to preserve this stunning and complex landscape. Remember to always check park updates and closures before visiting any National Park, but know that right now you can keep your community safest by staying at home. #findyourpark #stayhome
Here at EDX, we wish to lend our support to friends across the museum field and broader cultural arts sector during these challenging times. Please consider raising your voice for them as well by clicking the link below, which will help you contact your local congressional legislators to support the inclusion of museums in any COVID-19 relief or economic stimulus packages. This will help ensure your favorite institutions will get the emergency funding they need to cope with the impact of virus-related closures in our arts communities. Thank you! . https://www.congressweb.com/AAM/67#/67/
