The design of a courtyard sensory garden at the Indiana School for the Blind

The goal of this project was to develop comprehensive guidelines for designs that enhance the sensory experiences for the blind and visually impaired. These guidelines were applied to the design of a courtyard sensory garden at the Indiana School for the Blind in Indianapolis, Indiana. The garden provides students with opportunities for passive recreation and interaction with the environment all while offering the ultimate sensory experience for the blind, visually impaired, and sighted.
