Recently I wrote about how my new building project helped me understand architecture so much better. But last week, when I attended the annual convention of the Souvenir Building Collectors Society, it took my appreciation to a new level.

Recently I wrote about my new 3d building project. Today I would like to talk about how it has changed my entire perception of what buildings are.
Unlike in most of my posts, I cannot talk about blind people in general, because each person is their own story and background and education. I can only talk about how it made a difference in my own personal life, but hopefully even through my own story some concepts will be useful for others when creating an experience for blind people, for example a tactile museum exhibit.

It has always fascinated me how to explain what a building looks like to a blind person. But as they say that a picture is worth a thousand words, a tactile experience is also definitely more accurate than a thousand words. For that matter, the two together is the best approach.
Since I couldn’t find a resource where I could get the models of 3d buildings, I created my own.
