This is the rear entrance (or exit) to the Centre for Disability Studies. “So what?” I hear you ask?
Well, the thing of it is, this is an automatic door. It is an extra wide door at that, to permit access to wheelchair users, but what I really want to draw your attention to is where the door leads to. It leads to tiny landing at the bottom of a flight of stairs, a very steep flight of stairs, with no chair lift or any disability aids what so ever.
So it is an entrance for someone too weak or inconvenienced to open the door, too wide to fit through a narrow door, yet someone strong enough to make it to the top of a steep flight of stairs unaided?
Perhaps it is an exercise on how things shouldn’t be done in a public building? The mind boggles.
