Everyone should be able to find their way around public places, right? Unfortunately, that\u2019s not usually the case: Guidance systems are often designed solely with visual cues in mind, excluding people with various disabilities.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The \u201cLABOR:leitsysteme\u201d collaboration project, led by Un-Label<\/a>, the TH K\u00f6ln<\/a>, and the Orangerie Theater<\/a>, aims to change that. A multisensory wayfinding system for the Orangerie Theater grounds is intended to ensure that as many people as possible can find their way around easily in the future. On June 16, the students will present their prototypes of the wayfinding systems at the Orangerie Theater. Anyone interested is cordially invited to attend the presentation.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text: Pr\u00e4sentation” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Rhythm & Rage” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n June 16, 2026, at 7 p.m.<\/strong> [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”\u00dcber das LABOR” module_id=”raum” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/un-label.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/c-Leitsystem-Seminar-TH-Foto-Kai-Kullen-1.jpeg” alt=”Several people in a conference room are working together on a large wall covered with plans, photos, and colorful sticky notes.
