Why this field?
Over 1 billion people live disabled everyday, yet adaptive design in a nascent field which effects us all. The built and designed environment is conventionally inadequate for the breadth of human experience. Very few people decide how the built environment is designed. Time to imagine and construct a more equitable society.
There are many challenges faced by our friends and family. These are within the scope and scale for anyone to participate in the design and manufacturing process to solve these problems. We exist to bring collective experiential knowledge into the built world.
Our mission
MakeGood believes in design for all—everyone deserves to be able to carry out daily activities of living with dignity. Utilizing digital design and fabrication tools, we empower those in our community to be curious about the built environment, and make it better for everyone.
We’ve helped over 1600 families to take life back into their hands
MakeGood works with anyone to help solve any adaptive design and manufacturing challenges. This is done through a design project process, putting the need-knower at the center of the design team, and making sure they lead the scope and goals of the project.
MakeGood is a collective of makers, designers, caretakers, innovators, and more, dedicated to pushing the bounds of design in the field of adaptive technology. By harnessing the creative power of everyone, we create amazing new innovations and experiences for all people.
MakeGood offers educational classes to schools, social action groups, and commercial design entities with a desire to Make Good. These classes are focused on design thinking, accessibility first, and adaptive technology making.
