Testimonials
We have had the pleasure and honour to work with Dr Naziaty Yaacob in advising us on how best to incorporate universal design elements into our Tuai Residence project in Setia Alam. She has scrutinized every little design detail and encouraged us to adopt best design practises, for which most of them has very little cost implication. We worked together in understanding the needs of our community with different abilities, and through that we are so proud to create spaces for an inclusive community to flourish. We would highly recommend her contribution in any project designs.
