The Senses: Design Beyond Vision

And I didn't understand that. I thought it was a more research-based neurobiology book. Although it was not what I expected, it was very well written, clearly illustrated, and offered insightful as well as provocative perspectives toward a more universal approach to design. Although humans are enormously visual creatures, there are more primitive areas of our brains (particularly olfactory and gustatory) that deeply affect how we perceive our world.

How odd that the designer of this book made a lot of it inaccessible to read. Tiny, dense typography, column after column. I'm a disability advocate, a person with a disability and a long time designer. I had high hopes for this book, and some of it was fabulous but I've had it for months and still can't pick it up to fully read because the accessibility of typography throughout the book is hard work for the eyes. Very hard work. Less text would have helped immensely. Larger, aired out font and leading, less density. Sad to have to say this.

Inspiring and moving!

I needed a book like this and wasn't expecting it until next week but I was surprised to find that it came earlier than expected!! Great for artists who wanna learn more about visual design

Case studies in abundance

Love this book!

It should be read, it should be taught. Full of useful thought to be applied to all design fields.

Design para todos os sentidos, informação e mensagens estruturadas para um mundo melhor.

É um livro escrito pela Ellen Lupton sobre design de exposição e o uso dos sentidos e sensações. Não preciso falar mais do que isso.
