Abstract: The concept of accessible furniture and interior design focuses on creating inclusive environments that accommodate people of all abilities, including those with physical, sensory, and cognitive impairments. This approach ensures that interior spaces are functional, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing for everyone, regardless of age or disability. Key considerations include ergonomic furniture, appropriate spatial layout, barrier-free access, visual and tactile cues, and adaptive technology. By integrating universal design principles, designers can foster independence, safety, and social inclusion. This paper explores the essential elements to consider when planning accessible interiors in both residential and public settings.
