In order to program the sense experience, we must use special hardware and software. There are several user-ready options available, and one of the most popular is Arduino. Arduino consists of programmable circuit board, which is also called a microcontroller, and software, which is also called an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The designer uses the… Continue reading Designing with the Senses Text IV

When the senses are documented in the preliminary, schematic, design development, and contract document phases, the designer must determine whether the sensory experiences are passive or active. If they are passive, then the documentation provided in the contract documents and cut sheets is adequate to define the design. However, if the experiences are active, requiring… Continue reading Designing with the Senses Text III

When the above items have been answered, we can begin to map out the senses in preliminary and schematic design. In the first pass, the chosen senses should be enumerated, and strategies on how to employ them may be determined. If the method of the senses’ use is not yet known, we can revisit this… Continue reading Designing with the Senses Text II

As a designer or architect, we must understand who the user is and then what is the program, or what is to be designed before we begin the sensory design. It would be good to have an interview with the client or a sample user to have a perspective and wants. Once this is understood,… Continue reading Designing with the Senses Text I

Target AudienceThis work’s target audience is architects and designers with the desire to heighten the impact of design through the use of and interaction with our senses. Although designers typically explore through vision, structures and spaces can become more complex through the addition of variable of our twenty or more senses. The interaction with the… Continue reading Sense Book Questions to Answer
