Sculpting Sensations

Abstract

In Sculpting Sensations, I embark on an exploration of how architecture can transcend the purely visual to engage the full spectrum of human senses. This project delves into the psychological and emotional impact of sensory-rich environments, uncovering how the interplay of materials, light, sound, and texture can shape our experiences and evoke deep emotional responses. Through research and design, I demonstrate how sensory synergy can be used as a method to create spaces that resonate on a personal and emotional level. The journey begins with an investigation into sensory perception, exploring how we interact with and are influenced by our surroundings. This research phase lays the foundation for a series of design interventions that culminate in a unique museum concept, where each space is sculpted to evoke specific emotions and sensations. Sculpting Sensations is not just a reflection of an academic journey; it is a manifesto for a more empathetic and human-centered approach to architecture. By bridging technical innovation with sensory and emotional considerations, this work paves the way for creating built environments that are not only functional and aesthetically pleasing but also profoundly enriching to the human experience. Join me on this inspiring journey and discover how architecture can touch the heart, engage the senses, and sculpt the sensations that shape our lives.
