Description

The strong influence of smell on the way we think and feel has long been overlooked by people due to its invisible nature. SCENT&SPACE reintroduces the topic of scent by launching a comprehensive experience that can be conducted in one’s own space, especially important in a pandemic, demonstrating olfactory stimulation as a meaningful and effective approach to elevate one’s space and well-being, outside of the usual visual/aural means. The experience is divided into 3 parts: 01 Olfactory Stimulation, 02 Visual Reflection, 03 Well-Being Exploration. By prioritizing the "smell" above possible visual representations, users are guided to focus solely on the smell first. Through stages of exploration, they are then directed to mix their very own scent. The experience progresses in the long term via a digital platform/app, instilling the idea of cultivating habits with the sense of smell, communicating the importance of well-being for fast-paced urban lifestyles.
