Publisher's Synopsis

Senses of Architecture is a groundbreaking book that challenges the traditional approach to design by emphasizing the often overlooked senses. It explores how engaging all our senses-touch, smell, sound, and even taste-can enhance our experience of spaces, sparking a new wave of inspiration and intrigue among architects and designers.

The book urges architects and designers to awaken these dormant senses, often neglected in modern design, to unlock a deeper understanding and appreciation of spaces. By moving beyond a purely visual approach, Senses of Architecture offers innovative solutions that make structures more dynamic and captivating.

Senses of Architecture is not just a theoretical exploration, but a practical guide that empowers architects and designers. Through insightful guidance and practical examples, the book equips them with valuable tools for incorporating sensory experiences into architectural projects. It encourages a holistic approach to design and invites clients to consider designs that engage all the senses.
