New episode of Trend Talks by Stendahls is out!

What’s the biggest barrier to accessibility?
(Hint: it’s not the cost.) 

 

Accessibility is often seen as a box to check, a set of regulations to meet. But what if we looked at it differently? What if accessibility was seen as an opportunity to innovate, connect, and improve the world for everyone—not just a select few?

In this episode of Trend Talks by Stendahls, we dive into this complex and fascinating topic, together with Anette Andersson from the Swedish Accessibility Association. Accessibility isn’t just about ramps and regulations—it’s about making experiences, designs, and technology inclusive for everyone. Together with our hosts, Kaj Leissner and Sara Lerén, Anette shares thought-provoking insights, and challenges some of the assumptions that often hold us back.

We tackle questions like:

  • What’s Sweden’s accessibility score on a scale of 1–10? Are we doing enough?
  • Is universal design realistic, or is “one design to rule them all” a flawed idea?
  • Why are robot pets becoming part of the conversation?

This talk is about more than compliance—it’s about making the world work better for everyone.
