KMA is a design and consulting practice, singularly engaged in the work of accessibility compliance and inclusive design.
Design
KMA’s design projects are user-centered, anticipating and celebrating the diversity of human age, ability, and culture. Our work in public and private buildings succeeds through the application of rigorous design thinking in service of a more equitable built environment. Where most designers default to mundane problem-solving, our architects meet the unique challenges of accessibility and inclusion through creativity and innovation.
Consulting
KMA’s consulting work is grounded in the clear but nuanced interpretation and application of local, state, and federal accessibility requirements for design and construction projects across the country. Our staff are trusted technical advisors, navigating these regulatory complexities on behalf of clients seeking to minimize risk, enhance quality control, and streamline construction processes. At the same time, we collaborate with forward-thinking clients to develop and implement best-practice approaches to inclusive design.
About KMA
We are architects, technical experts, and thought leaders working, and thinking, at the intersection of architecture and accessibility. Our shared work supports diversity, equity, and inclusion in the built environment by catalyzing best-practice approaches to regulatory compliance and inclusive design through education, consulting, and built projects. We are both code nerds and mission-driven designers, creating a world of inclusive spaces for the betterment of all. From lofts to libraries, museums to memorials, colleges to kindergartens, barns to boathouses, we are making inclusion standard.
