At VOIT, accessibility is not a secondary concern; it is a basic design principle. We think that the best designs benefit everyone, regardless of their ability.

Accessibility Considerations

Remember, designing for accessibility doesn't just support users with disabilities - it improves the experience for everyone. By embracing accessibility, we create designs that are more flexible, more robust, and ultimately, more human.

When using VOIT, consider the following principles:

• Provide alternatives: For every non-text element, provide a text alternative.

• Don't rely on color alone: Use multiple cues, such as shapes and text, to convey important information.

• Ensure sufficient contrast: Use our Intelligent Color System to maintain readable contrast ratios.

• Make it keyboard accessible: Ensure all functionality is accessible via keyboard navigation.

• Provide clear feedback: Make sure users know when their actions had an effect.

Inclusivity Considerations

Inclusivity is at the heart of our design philosophy. We strive to create designs that reflect and respect the diversity of our users. Therefore, we invite you to consider these factors:

• Language: Use inclusive language that avoids bias and stereotypes.

• Representation: Ensure diverse representation in imagery and iconography.

• Cultural Sensitivity: Be aware of cultural differences and design with sensitivity to various cultural contexts.

• Gender Neutrality: Use gender-neutral language and design elements.

• User Feedback: Continuously gather feedback from a diverse group of users to enhance inclusivity in designs.
