Terms of criticism 1. Are the elements of DeafSpace utilized seamlessly to create a space that is accessible to all the users? 2. Does the space allow for deaf community members to mingle and make connections? 3. Will the environment allow for bonding between family members? 4. Is the design allowing the strengthening of the knowledge and understanding of deafness and Deaf Culture? 5. Is this a relaxing environment? 6. Do the spaces allow for fortuitous interaction? 7. Are connections between people encouraged? 8. Does the space provide for a community to grow? 9. Does the design and material selection reduce eye fatigue?
