With the increasingly widespread adoption of design, inclusivity is gaining ground, exploring the creation of techniques, structures and utility items to help persons with any disability live their life to the fullest possible.

The exhibition was created in a joint effort by MOME, the Hungarian Paralympic Committee, the EGYMI Movement Development Primary and Secondary School, Budapest, and House of the Hungarian Millennium, and features product design items that are linked to experiences that people with no physical disability take for granted.
