Abstract


Number of people with visual impairment in the world increases every year. In 2018, WHO [1] recorded that there was 1.3 billion people with visual impairment. In 2021, this number reached 2.2 billion globally. This shows that the needs of people with visual impairment also increase. A simple example is the need to fulfill their daily needs, such as toiletries, cooking needs, household utensils, etc. When going to shopping center, a number of people with visual impairment are accompanied by people with normal vision. After arriving at the shopping center, they choose what they want to buy. However, they need a quite long time to make a choice due to several factors. Therefore, this article offers solution to facilitate people with visual impairment to solve this problem through icon pack design for the daily needs. The researcher used non-participant observation and made documentation when people with visual impairment touched particular object as the initial stage in a series of process to design icon packs for their daily needs.
