Accessibility

What is accessibility?

Accessibility, or accessibility design ensures that products meet both legal and ethical accessibility requirements. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) defines web accessibility as "websites, tools, and technologies are designed and developed so that people with disabilities can use them. Web accessibility encompasses all disabilities that affect access to the Web, including: auditory, cognitive, neurological, physical, speech, and visual."

Accessibility process

How do we approach accessibility?

We bake accessibility principles into our design process and thinking. Nomat designers design to meet compliance to WCAG 2.2 level AA. This ensures that designs ensure minimum contrast levels for colours used, for text to ensure readability, minimum target sizes for touch devices, and ensure the sequence and hierarchy of information is coherent for all types of users. Additionally, we structure information to maintain a coherent sequence and hierarchy for all users.

Why do we support accessibility?

Accessibility and inclusive design is essential in creating products that can be used by everyone, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. By adhering to WCAG standards, we guarantee minimum contrast levels for colors, ensuring text readability and establish minimum target sizes for touch devices. We also work collaboratively with developers and accessibility consultants to arrive at technical solutions that meet accessibility guidelines.

When do we support accessibility?

Accessible design is a core principle integrated into every stage of our design process. It is foundational to our approach, ensuring that our products are not only visually appealing but also functional and inclusive for a diverse user base.
