I often think of this sign I saw at a small children's playground with braille on it hung 6 feet in the air with no way to reach it. Braille printed on a sign posted too high to reach.

I think of the sign that says "hot surface do not touch" with accompanying braille.

Yep. That one was made by a guy who made all kinds of warning plates for their plant, and legal & corporate requirements were that every sign has to have braille on it. I don't think the department requesting that sign from their sign-making-department had this on their screens...

There's also no way for someone who needs Braille to actually DO the "puzzle". The other words don't have Braille, the map appears to be flat. Terrible design.

Nah the black parts of the sign are recessed. You can see from the lighting.

[-] BluesF@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Still, there should be Braille for the text too.

Maybe the builder just mounted the panel the wrong way? It serves as a wall for the platform behind it.

There's a different printing on the other side too.
