Abstract:
Within the discourse of experiential architecture, the design approach has been mainly exclusive, excluding the non-conventional senses, while stressing greatly on the visual sense. This visual bias has been resulting in the consequent disappearance of sensory qualities in architecture which in turn are affecting a person’s experience and perception of the built environment.
The thesis focuses on achieving a more optimal and inclusive multisensory experience to fully sensualize architecture through integrating all the sensory realms rather than just the prevailing visual one.
Through ample experimentations, evaluations, and a matrix of analysis, the project unfolds into an architectural winery pavilion providing the most possibility and flexibility to incorporate and engage all of the senses.
The design and experiential architectural spaces have been studied in a way to trigger all the senses allowing for an optimized, inclusive, multisensory, architectural inclusiveness.
