Mobility and access
Often a simple solution gets you far
Mobility and access
Sometimes you need extensive modifications
When interests collide
What about historical buildings?

Challenges for innovation
CMSs Can produce inaccessible web content
Historical places can be hard to modify
Who owns a place or building?
Outdoor events special considerations
Design for all
