Rumsans wants to inspire the construction industry to think differently about accessible architecture—an element which to many has been synonymous with checklists, rules, and not least, bad aesthetics. Department of the Built Environment, Aalborg University, wanted to exchange their regulations for inspiration. From this, the idea of ‘Rumsans’ (a Danish wordplay meaning, ‘sense of a room’) emerged—a website with good and aesthetic examples, knowledge, tips, and research about universal design.

It takes time to change an industry’s perception. But inspiration has proven to be an effective—and eye-opening—strategy. Since the site launched, we’ve been a close partner and assisted the team with anything from editorial direction to social media presence and copywriting.

Playful and recognizable
Rumsans is a lighter and more playful take on the institute's communication. With a bright and recognizable yellow and the interchangable systems, the identity expresses playfulness, exploration, and creates a visual attraction in a flooded feed.

I'm impressed with Granyon's understanding not only of Rumsans but also of universal design – their dedication and inspirational ideas about communicating universal design in the right way to the target group. Our collaboration is characterized by high professionalism and ambitions, and we continuously challenge each other.
