Ankerpunten

Interactive museum objects that tell inclusive stories.

An inclusive museum experience. With around 380,000 people in the Netherlands living with visual impairments, accessibility is essential. Ankerpunten (Anchor Points) offer a foundational layer of accessibility that enables true inclusion.

Key points

Self-guided exploration. By presenting replicas of museum objects in a tactile and interactive way, visually impaired visitors can participate in the regular museum experience independently, at their own pace and through active exploration.

Diverse stories for a diverse audience. Ankerpunten can translate existing objects and stories into accessible formats or introduce entirely new experiences.

Consistency & recognition. The tactile objects serve as familiar, recurring touchpoints, providing structure and a seamless, integrated experience throughout the museum.
