THE HAPTIC & TACTILE

One can relate their body to the space through the senses of sight, touch, smell, taste and hear, their senses come in different ways such as coming directly or indirectly. The body changes along with the atmosphere it experiences such as the sight of a carpet enables one to tell its textures without having to feel it. This has helped me with my material selection for my interior projects with the type of ambiance I want to create in a space using materials; whether I want to create a smooth, glossy or rough appearance finish. It can affect the perception of the users and allow them to connect to the space through the sense of touch or sight. From here, I went further understood how human not only have those five senses, we have awareness beyond such as pressure, temperature, motion and balance. With these in mind, I have to be more sensitive to details and feel more when I plan as a designer.
