I wonder which category this belongs in?
Life in a wheelchair certainly makes you notice steps, narrow pathways, and steepnesses around the city ... make that the world! (Not to mention that wheelchair loos are often few and far between.)
Maybe I'm just a spoilt babyboomer, who wants open access everywhere just like before the wheelie thing. But I also think that accessibility creates good design for everyone, including kids, mums with prams, and anyone a bit wobbly on their feet.
And hands up who hasn't been so drunk they battered and bruised themselves falling up/down stairs!
