Yes, DTAC are the dot people. Recently interviewed and filmed by Rob Burke of Milkshake for SELECTOR.COM.AU, Dean gives insight into the world of ‘The Dot'
The company are known as world leaders in tactile ground indicators and Dean Homicki has elevated the humble, self effacing Dot into an artful and indispensable aspect of building design. ‘We are the George Jensen of tactiles' says Dean. ‘Once you notice the dots, you see them everywhere, the dots are essential information for the visually impaired.
The dots that we see in regimental rows at the top and bottom of ramps and stairs in commercial spaces, make a safer environment in public spaces. ‘Think of them like Braille for the floor' adds Dean.
