How can we alter perception through design?
Unlocking the Secrets of Perception Shifting Through Design using Sensory Juxtaposition.
Perception is how our brain interprets sensory information. Sensory juxtaposition is a powerful design tool to amplify perception for greater impact. By juxtaposing sensory qualities like light and dark, color, room scales, and acoustic treatments, designers can make spaces seem bigger, brighter, louder.
