Immobility


Physical Immobility

When does obesity become disablity?

Our nation is getting bigger and bigger! When does the standard width of a door way get bigger?

As architects of the future, how are the disablities of today physically going to effect the way we design everyday things?



About 46% of men in England and 32% of women are overweight
an additional 17% of men and 21% of women are obese!!!

Overweight and obesity are increasing.
The percentage of adults who are obese has roughly doubled since the mid-1980's.


I think that it wont be long before legislation is passed, in which to alow the mobility of our MASSIVE population to be accounted for.
