Summary/Abstract: The study discussed the need to create an inclusive digital environment, where web products should provide equal access for people with different abilities, combining visual appeal, ergonomics, and accessibility for a full user experience. The purpose of the study was to analyse key aesthetic principles and design solutions that ensured visual appeal, comfort, and full accessibility of web products for users with various types of disabilities. The main research findings indicated that the aesthetics of inclusive web products were shaped by a harmonious blend of visual appeal, functionality, and accessibility. The study emphasised the importance of utilising a clear structure, logical navigation, and understandable interface elements to facilitate interaction for users with diverse disabilities. Key aesthetic and ergonomic principles and techniques have been identified, the application of which ensured the creation of accessible content within the context of inclusive web design. The necessity of ensuring sufficient colour contrast, design adaptability to various devices, and support for alternative information perception methods had been established. It was determined that consideration of the needs of users with disabilities contributed to a positive aesthetic experience and enhanced the overall quality of the web product. It was found that the impact of emotional response and social inclusion were important criteria for evaluating inclusive web products. Research has shown that design that made users with disabilities feel respected and included significantly improved their overall interaction and perception experience. The practical significance lie in demonstrating how integrating aesthetics is ensuring accessibility and delivering high-quality user experiences, thereby shifting web development from mere technical compliance to an inclusive design approach
