Our Mission: Building a Boundless World
At Access Built, we believe accessibility is more than compliance. it’s freedom. Our mission is to remove barriers in homes, workplaces, and communities so that people of all abilities can live, work, and thrive without limits.
Over 61 million people in the U.S. live with a disability that impacts daily life, yet less than 1% of spaces are truly accessible. This gap isn’t just a statistic. It is a barrier to independence, inclusion, and equity. Access Built exists to close that gap.
From Scarcity to Inclusion
We are not just solving for housing. We are transforming how environments are designed across residential, commercial, healthcare, and public spaces. Using our proprietary Friction Point™ Method, we help organizations identify barriers, reduce risks, and implement solutions that improve accessibility for everyone.
Accessibility is not a cost. It is an investment in innovation, safety, and dignity. We call this the Design Dividend.
Boundless: The Book That Defines our Movement
Our work is captured in the book Boundless: Real Stories and Practical Strategies for Inclusive Living. Co-authored by Access Built founder Alex Norman with disability advocate Garrett Mayersohn, Boundless blends lived experiences with practical tools to show how universal design benefits everyone.
The book is more than a guide. It is our manifesto, a call to action to create environments where independence is not a privilege, but a universal right.
