- szszrk 5y agoI struggle to find essence in that article as well. Text seem to suggest it's a 1/0 thing, good and bad design, but pictures don't seem to confirm that. A lot of them that are described as good I would hate. Horribly uneven sidewalks, uneven and slippery paving stones, horrible kerbs with no flattening for easy access, too narrow and very badly maintained sidewalks. A lot of the examples are bad for me. I struggle to find pleasant ones. The ones that are designed nicely and look good are a wheelchair, baby stroller and old people nightmare.
