![]() Notice how some restaurants are noisy while others are quieter. Pay attention to the sound your cane makes when you walk down a long hall versus when you navigate down a sidewalk. What does it feel like through the tip of your cane? What material do you think it is? How does the carpet in the living room feel (soft, elegant) compared to the kitchen or bathroom tiles (hard, washable)? Go outside to a deck, a patio, a driveway, or a sidewalk. As you use your cane to navigate, pay attention to the different textures under the tip. Does the chair have a straight back? Is it rounded? Are its legs straight or curved? How is the design of the kitchen chairs different from the dining room ones? Is the sink bowl round or square how are the faucet heads different in the kitchen versus the bath? These are called "design elements." Use pipe cleaners, wax sticks, or a tactile pad to draw the lines you traced with your hand. Only in this way can you understand how design works. ![]() Run your hands along the lines of each object, from top to bottom, left to right. Touch everything you can: the different chairs in your house, the family car, the kitchen sink versus the bathroom sink, the fence in the neighbor's yard. ![]()
