Friends of PULSE360 joined Cooper Hewitt curators Ellen Lupton and Andrea Lipps for a private walkthrough of The Senses: Design Beyond Vision.
After a pre-tour mixer with chianti, we wandered through the storied buliding to explore experimental works and practical solutions designed to inspire wonder and new ways of accessing our world. Wander through a scented snowstorm, play a furry instrument in a Tactile Orchestra, investigate the sonic properties of glass, and experience many more multisensory experiences from some of the world’s most creative thinkers, including Christopher Brosius, KunstLAB Arnhem, Studio Roos Meerman, Maya+Rouvelle, and more.
With over 65 design projects and more than 40 objects and installations to touch, hear, and smell, The Senses is an inclusive celebration of the sensory richness of design. The Senses was designed to be accessible to visitors of all abilities with elements in braille and T-coil–enabled audio devices.
