Accessibility

We believe that the web should be accessible to all.

Accessible design is not just about making sites easier to navigate and read for people with disabilities, it's also about making web sites easy to use for anyone who has an alternative browser. There are browsers with text-only modes, browsers on hand held devices, monochrome displays, kiosks and aural browsers. We should design for everyone who uses the web, not just those in front of a desk, looking at a monitor.

Accessible design

Important aspects of accessible design include using structural HTML markup for pages, and using cascading style sheets for separating the presentation and layout of pages from the content.

HTML elements such as forms for user input, tables and graphics require special attention to ensure that they are as accessible as possible.

We specialise in accessible website design and we work to the W3C's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.

Accessibility audits

We can undertake audits of existing websites, and produce detailed reports about accessibility issues, with suggestions for improving their accessibility. Please contact us if you are interested in commissioning an audit for your website.
