How to Give A Better Sweater | Deborah Lalush | TEDxNCState

Deborah Lalush, an industrial design major, shows us the hidden opportunities behind enabling people with disabilities while breaking down universal design. Maybe it is as simple as giving the right sweater. Deborah’s niche: the intersection between design and disability. Deborah’s passions for both design and disability justice have driven her work in Industrial Design at NC State for the last few years. As a disabled designer herself, she is in just the right position to understand the need for designers, creators, and professionals that will seek out disabled expertise. Universal design—design that is meant to work for everyone—is the bar set for design right now, but she wonders: how much farther can we go if the process to create these things is inclusive, too? This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
