和合設計 (inclusive design)，又稱包容設計或共融設計，號稱全人類設計 (design for the whole population)，是英國的習慣用語，其定義為：對於主流產品或服務的設計，其設計理念應該是盡可能以全球性的消費者為考量，設計出可親近的、可使用的產品或服務；並且能彈性運用在各式各樣的不同情況下，對於能力不同的使用者，可以不用有太複雜的調整或專業的設計。
(inclusive design: design of mainstream products and/or services that are accessible to, and usable by, as many people as reasonably possible on a global basis, in a wide variety of situations and to the greatest extent possible without the need for special adaption or specialized design. )
ISO/IEC Guide 71:2001《標準發展者處理高齡及身心障礙者需要之指導綱要》(Guidelines for standards developers to address the needs for older persons and persons with disabilities) 「3.2 可及設計 (accessible design)」對於可及設計 一詞定義的第 1 個註釋說明原文如下：
NOTE 1. Terms such as design for all, barrier-free design, inclusive design and transgenerational design are used similarly but in different context.
CNS 15550:2012 為 ISO/IEC Guide 71:2001 等同採用的國家標準，從 NOTE 1 的翻譯：「備考 1：例如一體性的設計、可及性設計、概括性設計及跨世代設計等皆為類似用語，惟其係指不同情況。」，CNS 將和合設計 (inclusive design) 翻譯為概括性設計、可及設計 (accessible design) 翻譯為可及性設計或無障礙設計。

Inclusive design constitutes a strategic framework and associated processes by which business decision-makers and design practitioners can understand and respond to the needs of diverse groups of users. The ultmate goal is to develop products and services that can meet the needs of the whole population.
