A space is an experience
From the human perspective a space is a sensory experience. For the last dozen or so years I have been observing and researching the connection between human wellbeing and interiors; how we experience them and why. There are places which positively influence our wellbeing, our concentration and our relationships with others. And vice versa, there are interiors which increase stress level and tension, and which in turn make us sleepy and irritable.
Project: wellbeing
As a researcher, I want to analyse all types of interiors, but as a designer I focus on using all of my knowledge about creating places and solutions which would support wellbeing and holistic comfort.
All of our senses are affected by our surroundings
I keep repeating Jinsop Lee’s saying from his famous TED talk : ”Good design looks great, yes — but why shouldn’t it also feel great, smell great and sound great?”
Holistic approach to design is close to my heart. It’s based on experiencing reality taking into account sensory information from all of the senses equally. In my trademark projects and in my educational work I promote the idea of synesthetic design which is a design which strives to develop products that incorporate all senses
