The article presents the results of the evaluation of the relationship between the way of shaping public space related to ensuring sustainable mobility in the city and the experiences of users influencing the perceptible quality of life. The assessment was carried out for one of the medium-sized cities, which was included in the list of cities threatened with exclusion. The subject of the evaluation was the city multimodal centreorganised around the railway station in Nysa. The aim of the research was to identify a selected, small group of key challenges and recommendations aimed at improving user experience in using a multimodal centre in the city. The article highlights the role of service infrastructure (stops, stations, transfer centres) in the ecosystem of sustainable urban mobility. Each element of this ecosystem (designed in accordance with the idea of universal design) can have a significant impact on the improvement of the perceptible (declared) quality of life in the city, if the applied solutions positively influence the user’s experience (including the sense of comfort and care). The authors focused on the current state of play in order to identify the key areas of intervention needed to improve the user experience in using the multimodal centre in a small and medium sized city. Attention was paid not only to the aspect of infrastructure accessibility, but also to the relations between urban, architectural and engineering solutions in the context of their impact on the assessment of the multimodal centre in terms of its usefulness in three dimensions: functional, rational and perceptible. The summary outlines the process of achieving from the basic solution standard to interoperability. This knowledge will allow better decision making in the planning of user-oriented projects in the city. This may be of particular importance when the conscious objective of the action is to achieve the level of interoperability expected by users of facilities such as, inter alia, a multimodal centre, which is one element of an urban public space with a significant impact on the quality of life of the citizen. Keywords: user experience, quality of life, universal design, interoperability, sustainable mobility

Principles of the Universal Design for Instruction (UDI) can be applied to open and distance education systems as an approach derived from universal design principles. UDI can be used not only for the disabled learners in open and distance education institutions but also for the creation of accessible learning environments for all learners. Within the scope of this study, the history and features of universal design principles in the field of architecture are explained first; then, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), Universal Instructional Design (UID) and UDI concepts, which are educational adaptations of universal design principles, are examined in detail. In the last section, management processes of open and distance education systems, examples of universal design in open and distance education and managerial processes in course design and delivery, are examined. In this way; modern approaches such as UDI principles are studied in terms of their applicability within the framework of design and delivery management in open and distance education environments.

One strategy to be able to provide facilities that are able to meet all these needs, namely by considering the application of the seven principles of universal design. In this study the data analysis method used is descriptive qualitative method. Qualitative research aims at research that ultimately produces design solutions. In this study will reveal how the implementation of 7 (seven) Universal Design Principles in public spaces in Bandar Lampung City. It is hoped that this study can be used as a recommendation in policy making for the design of a friendly public space for all people including people with disabilities and children in the city of Bandar Lampung.Keyword: Public Space, Universal Design, DisabilitiesAbstrak: Ruang publik sebagai bagian dari ruang kota tidak dapat dipisahkan keberadaannya dari suatu kota.

As the lack of consciousness for the importance of universal environment without any physical border, gender, and age for every society leads to a minimum policy to support universal design concept to be applied in public facilities building plan. This is also happened in most of mosques building in Indonesia, where it is not easily accessible to all jammaat including the children, adults, the elders, and the diffabled. The circulation on a mosque should not give barriers to people who wanted to do worship activities, especially the diffabled. A universal design mosque concept is one of the most important to be concerned and applied so the building will be accessible to all Muslims. This research aims to know how far is the universal design concept affect the independence of the disabled. The study was done at UIN Sunan Kalijaga mosque and UGM Campus Mosque in Yogyakarta. The researcher did a field observation to the research objects to see how far is the universal design concept is applied. The research method done is quantitative method with independency scale of measure for the disabled’s within the building. The data was analyzed by the comparison of two independent sample using t-test statistics analysis method. The end result in this research stated that the disable’s perception on independency level raise positively towards the universal design concept applied in the mosque‘s design planning. [Belum banyaknya kesadaran akan pentingnya lingkungan yang universal tanpa batasan fisik, gender dan usia bagi semua masyarakat, mengakibatkan kebijakan mengenai pembangunan fasilitas umum masih belum secara tegas mendukung konsep desain universal. Hal tersebut juga terjadi pada sebagian besar masjid di Indonesia, dimana masjid tidak dapat diakses oleh semua golongan jama’ah antara lain anak-anak, dewasa, lansia maupun difabel. Sirkulasi pada bangunan masjid tidak seharusnya memiliki hambatan bagi jama’ah yang ingin beribadah, terutama difabel. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh konsep desain universal terhadap tingkat kemandirian difabel pada desain bangunan masjid. Studi kasus dilakukan pada Masjid UIN Sunan Kalijaga dan Masjid Kampus UGM di Yogyakarta. Peneliti melakukan observasi pada objek penelitian untuk melihat sejauh mana objek penelitian menerapkan konsep desain universal. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode kuantitatif dengan alat ukur skala kemandirian difabel di dalam bangunan. Data dianalisis dengan metode komparasi dua sample independen menggunakan analisis statistik t-test. Hasil akhir penelitian menyatakan bahwa persepsi difabel terhadap tingkat kemandirian berpengaruh secara positif dengan adanya konsep desain universal pada desain bangunan masjid.]

Home ownership creates stability and improves the quality of life of the disabled communities. As Malaysia approaches the developed status and the high – income economy by 2020, the housing industry needs to be adaptive to the demands for special groups. Universal homes incorporate universal design principles, resulting in a living environment that can be adapted to virtually any user’s long term comfort, safety and ease. The aim of this paper is to study on the preferences and level of satisfaction on design factor in owning residential property among the disabled community in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. A questionnaire survey was conducted on a sample of 800 respondents. The respondents were selected from the disabled community, focusing on two categories of disabilities, physical and visual impairment. The outcome of this study shows that disabled people prefer houses which are complete with design that accommodates residents’ physical limitations. For design elements of their residential property, this study found that the disabled people are satisfied with the provision of ramp to access into the building, while their satisfaction on design for the low physical effort scored at seventh place. The study concludes with two housing recommendations: to provide at least the minimum requirement of universal design in all upcoming projects and to provide home modification scheme.
