helping visually impaired

Walking along in downtown Santa Barbara I spotted this star laying on the yellow background of the tactile paving. You have most likely seen this already. They are there for those people who are visually impaired. The texture for the truly blind and the yellow for those whose vision is somewhat weakened. It tells them the sidewalk is ending. Something that most of us don’t need the warning. But there it was. A star from some celebration earlier. A piece of large glitter or something random in the perfect spot.
