A few years back, journalist <a href="https://www.oberandout.com/bio">Lauren Ober</a> was diagnosed with autism. She then made a podcast about her experience called <a href="https://www.pushkin.fm/podcasts/loudest-girl-in-the-world">The Loudest Girl in the World</a>. And she found herself imagining a fantasy world where everything is tailored to Lauren’s very specific autistic needs. And she called this magical imagined place, wonderfully devoid of overwhelming stimuli "Autism Pleasantville.""Obviously," Ober notes, "there’s not a one-size fits all diagnosis or even definition of autism ... as the autism adage goes: 'If you know one autistic person…you know one autistic person.' But despite our wide variety of needs, I wanted to know how design is evolving to better accommodate us" -- how were ideals being handled in the real world.<a href="https://99percentinvisible.org/?p=42052&post_type=episode">Autism Pleasantville</a>
