The pattern guidance we're publishing is designed to help remove barriers to online transactions and interactions, helping the public access government services and programs. As we spoke with digital teams across the federal space we learned that regardless of program or mission, teams are actively wrestling with these issues: how to create effective, inclusive, and equitable digital experiences. Some teams were further along. We were fortunate to learn from these colleagues and to have their perspectives inform our work. Other teams were in the early stages and were looking for additional guidance from a resource like USWDS.

<h3 class="text-indigo-10 margin-top-3">The word &quot;pattern&quot;</h3>
<p class="text-white">
The word <em>Pattern</em> — in this usage — was coined by the architect Christopher Alexander in the 1970s to describe patterns of behavior and approach: "a problem which occurs over and over again in our environment, and then [...] the core of the solution to that problem [described] in such a way that you can use this solution a million times over, without ever doing it the same way twice." For instance, what are the kinds of things that people do again and again in their homes (or <em>expect</em> again and again <em>from</em> their homes) and how might homes be built to support these needs? For Alexander, these needs go beyond the prosaic needs of shelter and sanitation to include psychological, physiological, and emotional needs. What can a home do to make you <em>feel at home?</em>

In an important way, Alexander reintroduced human-centered design into the design practice of architecture, and the concepts he and his peers developed are just as relevant and practical to any designed experience.[^2]

<h3>A commitment to the practice of inclusivity</h3>
<p>
While we may never reach the aspirational goal of a totally inclusive experience, the <em>process</em> of attempting to fulfill the aspiration leads to better experiences overall. Developing patterns through the lens of inclusivity requires us to interrogate ourselves and our work at each step of the design process.
