L'accessibility<\/strong> is a fundamental criterion in the context of interior design, especially when it comes to meeting the needs of people with reduced mobility (PRM)<\/strong>. In France, strict standards<\/strong> supervise this accessibility in order to guarantee the safety and comfort of all.
