Unveiling Scents. Designing With, Through, and For Smell.
While visual, acoustic, and tactile impressions often take center stage in design education, olfactory perception has received relatively little attention in design practice. Yet, most of our experiences are accompanied by a scent, even if we are not consciously aware of it. Among all our senses, none is as deeply connected to personal memories, and emotions - both positive and negative - as the sense of smell. Shouldn’t this dimension receive at least as much focus and appreciation in design education as the more established media of contemporary design?
