ASPECTSS* | THE DESIGN INDEX

Birdingbury

The Autism ASPECTSS™ Design Index is the first set of evidence based design guidelines worldwide to address built environments for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder. It was developed over a decade of research and is comprised of seven criteria proposed to be facilitative for ASD design. It is used as both an assessment and design development tool.


The Autism ASPECTSS Design Index, published in 2013, is a research-based framework of 7 design concepts facilitative of architectures for autism.

These 7 concepts are:

Acoustics
Spatial Sequencing
Escape
Compartmentalisation
Transition
Sensory zoning and
Safety
