Smell and hearing sensory design
Sight Sensory Design
Peter Zumthor, Bruder Klaus Field Chapel, 2007.
(a) entrance area (b) interior space
The case study analyzes two prominent phenomenological architects,
Peter Zumthor and Kengo Kuma, and how they designed architectural
spaces to enhance interior experiences and emotional connections.

One of the case studies is the Bruder Klaus Field Chapel by Peter
Zumthor, built in Germany in 2007. The chapel's unique construction
involved pouring concrete around stacked tree trunks and then
burning the wooden frame. This process left behind a textured
concrete surface with a distinctive smell. Crystal shafts were inserted
into small holes in the walls, creating a starry night effect in the
interior space. This construction method is integrated with the overall
spatial experience
Peter Zumthor, Serpentine Pavilion, 2011.
The Serpentine Pavilion in 2011, designed by Peter Zumthor, aimed to create
a meditative and spiritually evoking experience. It featured an inner garden
designed by Piet Oudolf at its center. The pavilion emphasized the role of
senses and emotions in architectural experiences.

Visitors were guided through a dark hallway with intermittent natural light
streams, creating a transition from the bustling city to a secluded and
intimate interior space. This interior space allowed people to meditate, sit,
walk, and observe the flowers. The carefully selected flora in the garden
stimulated visitors' senses through colors, fragrances, and textures.

The pavilion's design focused on providing a calm and meditative


environment, highlighting the importance of sensory and emotional
experiences in architecture.
Kengo Kuma, Sensing Space. (
Kuma's created two darkened rooms infused with scents that evoked memories of specific
spaces, particularly those associated with Japanese culture. He used scents inspired by a
Japanese smell ceremony, similar to the traditional Japanese tea ceremony. The scents were
integrated into the exhibition through woven bamboo structures, spotlights, and materials
like tatami mats and hinoki wood.

Kuma highlighted the importance of darkness in traditional Japanese architecture, as it


emphasized the distinctiveness of each scent in the installations. Visitors to the exhibition could
experience these scents, and for Kuma, the aroma evoked memories of his childhood home,
creating a personal and sensory connection. This experience resonated with visitors who
shared similar memories and even those unfamiliar with the scents, making it a unique and
meaningful part of the exhibition.
GC Prostho Museum Research Center, Kengo Kuma
The GC Prostho Museum Research Center, designed by Kengo Kuma and built in
Japan's Aichi Prefecture in 2010, draws inspiration from a traditional Japanese toy
called Chidori. Chidori is a three-dimensional puzzle made of interlocking wooden
sticks with joints that allow them to be assembled without nails or other fittings.

The building's wooden structure resembles the Chidori toy, creating a flexible and
harmonious space defined by light, structure, and material. As people approach the
building, they catch glimpses of the interior space through the interlocking wooden
lattice, which varies depending on the lighting conditions. Upon entering, visitors
experience a cave-like space carved out of the lattice structure, simultaneously
connected to and distanced from the exterior due to the angles and densities of the
Chidori system.

The quality of the spatial experience is enhanced by the interplay of light and
shadow, with sunlight filtering through the lattice and creating ever-changing
patterns of shadows. Kuma describes these patterns as resembling a forest of
deciduous trees with dappled sunlight, providing visitors with a spiritual and
evolving connection to the space throughout the day.
Various aspects, such as the physical and sensory body, materiality, and
emotional connection, were combined
to improve the quality of the interior experience
