Accessibility in brief

The entry to the building features powered doors with low thresholds, and the second floor is easily reachable via an elevator.

The door to the Podcast Studio is a regular hinged door, with a twist lock requiring some grip strength. There is also a slight threshold due to acoustic insulation.

The space is tight, but furniture can easily be moved.

Restroom and cafeteria services are easiest to access on the entry floor.
