This website provided i-literate with our first opportunity to create a fully accessible website that would cater to both sighted, as well as blind and visually impaired visitors. Having conducted research into suitable website design and copy requirements both locally and internationally, we were able to hone our approach and deliver a solution that would appeal to all users.
Although we are still fairly limited in terms of the type of design that can be incorporated that will suit the requirements of blind and visually impaired persons, evolving technologies have assisted us to move away from a very ‘boxy’ amateur feel to something that looks clean and sophisticated. ‘Ugly’ websites that are suitable for viewing by blind and visually impaired persons are therefore a thing of the past. Let us hope that organizations will try to accommodate the needs of blind and VIP’s in future – at i-literate we will certainly be taking their requirements into account for future projects.
A big ‘Thank you’ to Brynley Evans at Pixel8 for your outstanding development ability, as well as your advice and input! It is always a pleasure working with you!
