Visualhaptic Types

This is a study that focused on several buildings that engaged with sensory design, i chose to critique each space in terms of how it felt and engaged on a  material and visual level. Instead of focusing on a basic rudimentary building typology, i.e. museums, this study aims to find a pattern between various typologies where a separate typology occurs. This has evolved into a study of sensory design typologies.  The buildings and structures chosen form a wide range of types that address visual and tactile senses, either directly or through phenomena.
To decipher if a structure falls within this typology a criteria has been shaped, firstly analysing and measuring the use visual and haptic senses, this is coupled with an examination of the material and spatial composition of that space. These four factors are then used to summarise the phenomenology of the body that space.
The evaluation of how work together in different combinations these four factors use to address sensory design will be useful.
