Abstract [sv]

I takt med teknologins utveckling växer även klyftan mellan visuellt innehåll och synskadade användare, då visualitet är den primära källan för informationsdesign. Denna artikel har som ändamål att undersöka hur en designer kan anpassa sin design och designprocess för att öka inkluderingen och minska kunskapsluckan. Artikelns litteratursamling berör ämnen som visual search, färgblindhet i samband med kontraster och andra indikatorer, formgivning och dess principer, detta skapade en bred grund för undersökningen och dess ändamål. Utöver informationssamling genomfördes intervjuer med Synskadades Riksförbund samt Unga med Synnedsättning Syd, för att skapa förståelse kring synnedsatta och deras behov. Resultaten baserades på relevant litteratur, information från metoder som intervjuer och användbarhetstest och ackumulerades i en tillgänglighetsmall gestaltad i en grafisk profil och webbplats för ett mock-up företag.

Abstract [en]

As technology advances, the gap between visual content and visually impaired users also grows, as visuality is the primary source of information design. This article aims to explore how a designer can adapt their design and design process to increase inclusivity and reduce the knowledge gap. The literature review of this article covers topics such as visual search, color blindness in relation to contrasts and other indicators, design and its principles, which created a broad foundation for the investigation and its purpose. In addition to information gathering, interviews were conducted with the Synskadades Riksförbund and Unga med Synnedsättning Syd, to gain an understanding of the visually impaired and their needs. The results were based on relevant literature, information from methods such as interviews and usability tests, and were accumulated in an accessibility template designed in a graphic identity and website for a mock-up company.
