This article presents the scenario of programming use by architects andengineers, creating their own unique tools. The goal is to emulate and understandthe phenomenon of BIM software customization by developing plug-ins that canexplore the human-environment relationship. Demonstrates the process forbuilding a plugin that seeks to equalize the theory of accessibility technicalstandards, visually impaired and architects. Uses Design Science Researchmethodologies to guide the construction of artifacts for specific practicalproblems and the Collaborative Design / Codesign to understand and know theusers' expertise. It is argued that the low quality of projects that include elementsfor the orientation of the visually impaired in Brazil is often related to anunstructured methodology in which important aspects such as the real needs ofthis group and the human-environment relationship are neglected.
