For the the visually impaired experience, I had to follow a set of steps to understand what everyday life for a person with visual limitations, would be like. I found that most of the steps were as expected, except for the part with the sunglasses and petroleum jelly. When wearing the glasses, I found that just walking was easy, but when it came to the stairs, your sense of depth perception is off. I might of found walking to be the easiest, but when I tried reading its near impossible to make out any of the words. All in all, I found this exercise to be very beneficial, especially because I am designing a home for some of who is visually impaired. Now I am able to design a space that will be more accommodating to their disability, rather than be a place of hazard.
