Erin Schambureck, MFA, NCIDQ Understanding the design factors that limit accessibility is crucial to improving interior spaces for the visually impaired. This study identified fourteen typologies negatively impacting low vision perception of interior space. Erin Schambureck works on understanding the impact of interior design components on persons with vision impairments. She is particularly interested in identifying design typologies that produce negative effects for low vision users and understanding the role that value contrast plays in the interpretation of space and visual information.
