Feelipa had its origin in 2009, when the author, Filipa Nogueira Pires, began an investigation with the aim of making color accessible to as many people as possible, particularly for people with some kind of visual impairment. The research was carried out alongside the MSc in Product Design at FA-UTL and in partnership with the Helen Keller Center (a school dedicated to the integration of students with visual impairments and other needs). Over several months of contact with visually impaired children, it was possible to develop, refine and validate this color code. These children were the ones who made the project possible.
