Tactile Learning & Design
Designing learning you can feel.
We design tactile learning tools that make educational concepts more accessible through touch.
Featured Project
The Tactile C-Major Scale
Our tactile C-major scale translates pitch into touch. Each note is represented at a different physical height, allowing students to feel how pitch rises and falls across the scale.
C Major Scale
Eight notes — C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C — create a simple introduction to pitch.
Height Represents Pitch
Each note has a different height, turning changes in pitch into something students can feel.
Designed to Be Shared
The model is low-cost to 3D print, making it easy to reproduce for classrooms.
Our Design Process
From an accessibility need to a classroom resource.
01
Identify
Start with a classroom or accessibility need.
02
Design
Turn the need into a tactile concept.
03
Prototype and produce the design with 3D printing.
04
Deliver
Share the resource with students and educators.
Design & Production
From digital design to finished model.
Designed in CAD
