Incorporating accessibility and inclusive design into architectural projects is now a normative and legal consideration. However, construction professionals often view them as constraints that hinder creativity. This paper discusses these concepts and their alignment with the universal values advocated by the United Nations (UN) and examines their application in local architectural design. Through theoretical analysis and a
review of current practices in inclusive design and accessibility, this paper seeks to enhance comprehension of these fundamental principles. Ultimately, it proposes a paradigm shift in the approach to inclusion and accessibility within architectural projects' design and development process, advocating for the integration of contemporary and locally relevant conceptual frameworks.
