”As designers, we look at everything. We determine the shape, the colours and the aesthetics of a space before anything else.”
”But here in the Coal Office we wanted to explore the role that all our other - often lesser recognised senses - contribute to our experiences of design; the smell and the taste of a place, the textures and tone of a space, the sound of an interior or the weight of an object – or even the most intangible of all – the sixth sense.“
”Hence why we have called this season TouchySmellyFeelyNoisyTasty, because after all, we are multisensory animals.”
