Our Thoughts

We saw texts that were said "this textbook is thinking of color universal design" frequently in textbooks we use, even in books we used when we were small. I felt query about why they write such thing even it seems normal, but now we knew that it is matter of course that we can “see normally”. In this way, we felt designs that every people can see and read normally is important to a textbook used in places like in schools.
