V&A Design Studio has designed the interiors of its own Design and Disability exhibition in London, United Kingdom.

The V&A's Design and Disability exhibition celebrates the profound contributions of Disabled, Deaf and neurodivergent communities since the 1940s.

By treating integrated access as a foundational principle rather than an afterthought, it fundamentally reshapes design history.

Co-created with lived-experience experts, the display features 170 objects designed to dismantle physical and perceptual barriers.

This masterclass in inclusive curation serves as a life-affirming manifesto and a powerful catalyst for change, challenging traditional narratives to inspire a more accessible future.

"It is a vibrant call to action that proves inclusive design is essential, not optional," said V&A Design Studio.
