The DisOrdinary Architecture Project is a not-for-profit platform that starts from the experiences, expertise and creativity of disabled artists to open up innovative new provocations for thinking and doing disability (and ability) differently in architecture and the built environment. Since 2007, we have been collaborating with educators, researchers and practitioners across the built environment and cultural sectors in a variety of ways including experiential workshops, alternative consultancies, creative provocations and built interventions. Instead of treating disabled people as merely a ‘technical’ or ‘legal’ problem for architecture and urban design, we aim to demonstrate how starting from disability – from the rich differences that biodiversity and neuro-divergence bring – is a powerful creative force for design; and acts as a vital challenge to normative assumptions about who is valued and who marginalised in the design of built space. By learning lessons from what we do, DisOrdinary Architecture aims to be a thought leader in the field, and to influence attitudes and practices as well as the design of our built surroundings
