Access Atlas

Reimagining how people understand accessibility.

Every day, people with different accessibility needs choose not to visit places they want to explore because they are uncertain whether those spaces will actually work for them.

Not because they do not want to go. But because they do not have enough confidence to know if they can.

Access Atlas was created to reduce that uncertainty.

It is a personalized accessibility platform that helps users understand how accessible a place will be for their specific needs before making the effort to visit.

Through personalized accessibility profiles, accessibility snapshots, AI-assisted discovery, and immersive accessibility previews, Access Atlas transforms accessibility from a generic label into something personal and actionable.

Building with the Figma Ecosystem

This project became an opportunity to explore how different parts of the Figma ecosystem can work together as one connected workflow.

Figma MCP → Research & Discovery

The process started with understanding the problem before designing the solution.

Using Figma MCP, I gathered references, researched accessibility patterns, explored existing experiences, collected inspiration, and organized insights into a structured discovery process.

This phase helped identify an important gap:

Accessibility information exists, but it is often fragmented, generic, and rarely personalized.

That insight became the foundation of Access Atlas.

Figma Design Agent → Design Exploration & Iteration

Design Agent became my creative companion throughout the project.

I used it across the entire workflow: • Converting rough sketches and low fidelity wireframes into polished interfaces • Generating and exploring multiple design directions • Building and expanding the design system • Applying visual changes across multiple screens simultaneously • Replacing placeholders with actual visual content • Accelerating iteration while maintaining intentional design decisions

Rather than designing for me, Design Agent allowed me to spend more time refining ideas and less time repeating tasks.

Figma Weave → Workflow Acceleration & Visual Creation

Figma Weave unlocked an entirely new way of creating.

I used Weave to build AI-powered workflows that made the process significantly faster and more flexible.

Using Weave, I: • Created a complete icon system from scratch • Generated graphical assets and supporting visual elements • Experimented with multiple creative directions simultaneously • Refined compositions and visual details • Improved lighting and polish across graphical elements • Explored outputs across different LLM workflows to accelerate decision-making

Instead of interrupting momentum with repetitive production work, Weave allowed me to stay focused on creating and iterating.

Figma Make → Turning the Concept into an Experience

Once the design system and flows were established, Figma Make helped transform the idea into something interactive.

Using Figma Make, I created a working concept that moved beyond static screens and into a more tangible product experience.

This allowed me to validate interactions, communicate the vision more clearly, and prototype how personalized accessibility could feel in practice.

Access Atlas started as a question:

What if people could understand accessibility before they arrived?

And evolved into a product vision focused on confidence, inclusion, and helping more people experience the world on their own terms.
