"Inclusive Campuses: Architecture Disability and Human Sensitivity" is the result of exhaustive and innovative research on optimization criteria in the planning and design of university spaces. Its development has enriching and diversifying the extensive work of exploration and ideation of the urban-architectural dimension of universities led by its author, who on this occasion has had the collaboration of Sonia Izquierdo, Covadonga Lorenzo, Pedro L. Nieto and Teresa Raventós.
The uniqueness of its content lies in the methodology of the research carried out, whose central axis was the consultation of people with Intellectual Disabilities on the perceptual-psychological impacts generated by different architectural typologies of universities. This provides a creative vision, where the scientific reading of the subject addressed is combined with a propositional vocation. The work concludes by formulating a set of universal ideation criteria for the physical spaces of Higher Education, emanating from the emotional impact derived from the composition of each of these typologies, at 3 scales: campus, building and classroom. This book collects the results of the R+D+i Project "Inclusive Campuses and Architecture" - Project PID2020-114373RB-I00 funded by MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033.
