Can therapeutic and rehabilitation aids be engaging and pleasurable to use? Can disability be seen in terms of aesthetically-minded design rather than only in terms of accessibility legislation? The paper explores the role that design could play in reducing the stigma associated with the use of rehabilitation aids that inherently manifest impairment and the inconvenience of the disability condition. The design case described in the paper shows that rehabilitation aids can be engaging, useful and pleasurable to use.
