How Architecture Affect Human Senses
Abstract
Architecture is a crucial aspect of the environment which impacts human experiences, memories,
feelings and in more instances than one, the decisions they make. Exploration of the connection
between architecture and human senses was the aim of the present paper. Whether the effect is
positive or negative, the effect was analyzed using the case study methodology. On one hand,
some people have a heightened awareness of their architectural environment while other are less
aware. At the end of the day, humans understand their surroundings through their senses,
whether that is auditory, smell, taste, or an interplay between these senses. The case study used
in the present analysis is the architectural significance of winery which is significant in ensuring
that all the senses in spatial experience are evoked when visitors first enter the facility.

A Literature Review
The five senses are based on a person’s eyes, ears, skin, and mouth. Humans understand
their buildings through these senses. The connection of senses is based on reason and logic.
Humans also express rational thought through intuition and self-awareness. The most important
of these senses is a person’s sight, which is crucial in giving someone a senses of color and the
three dimensions. Listening is also crucial for helping people feel the building from a certain
perspective. Touch is vital, considering an architectural feel of a building is perceived by an
individual’s sense, for instance, a wall. More often than not, architectural designs are based on an
individual’s visual senses. The other senses are not as heavily considered as sight. However,
architectural buildings have the capacity to relate to the surrounding culture through an
individual’s senses. The architect acts as a composer who orchestrates space to synchronize
function and aesthetic through senses. The capacity of the human body to connect with space
through senses is of paramount importance to architecture. Architectural space layers for the sake
of all human senses, and occupants of a building can experience the spatial features. When an
architect brings a space into life, this concept goes beyond the visual sense. The objective is to
engage all senses, to be able to fully express the form and function of a building so that the
occupants have a more meaningful experience. An architect is considered successful when there
is sensations of the body as opposed to cognitive knowledge. According to Howes, (2005), a
building which evokes bodily imbalance, or irritation cannot be said to have reached its sensory
satisfaction. Some of the famous architects who have emphasized the sense modality have
focused on the eye and haptic architecture of the human muscle and skin. Le Corbusier and
Richard Meyer are architects who leaned toward the sense of sight. Expressionist orientation is
architecture which focused on muscular and haptic senses. Frank Lloyd Wright was famous for

fully recognizing the human condition and the many instinct reactions that human unconscious
has. Alvar Aalto was an architect who was concerned with all the senses. His architecture
exhibited a muscular and haptic focus which incorporates irregularities and confrontations with
the objective of arousing experiences. He created textures and details which were crafted for
touch, inviting the sense of touch to evoke a sense of intimacy and warmth. Rather than the
disembodied sense of idealism focusing on the architecture of the eye, Aalto focus was on
sensory realism.
A Methodology and Analysis of the Methodology
The present analysis uses a case study methodology to show how architecture affects human
senses. The objective of the case study is to demonstrate the importance of sensory experience in
architecture as well as express how differing sensory environments compare.
-Case Study (How Architecture Affect Human Senses)
The present analysis will demonstrate how wineries evoke sensory experiences in
humans. First, they are located in warm and calm climate for the benefits of farming and
successful wine production. There is extensive use of natural light and ventilation to make use of
natural and fresh air from outside. The wineries have wine caves that are thinly insulated to
allow the rooms to remain chilled and preserved. The access to natural air allows for the winery
to feel fresh and exhilarate all human senses. Wineries further encompass Genius-loci according
to Emeney, (2016) where each space establishes a feeling of preservation and security to
successfully appeal to customers through the sense of familiarity. There is a sense of frozen
music which evokes a sense of memory using rhythm and sound. The lighting tends to be dim
which makes the space feel enigmatic and the strong sense of smell establish nature. Wineries,

according to Emeney, (2016) consistently use procession throughout their spaces which helps
guide visitors through the space to ensure that they get an experience of the story of the facility.
There is need for a progression of space which provides a satisfying feeling of completion.
Further, wineries tend to be reflective of wine. Space sensation should have the capacity to
attract all the human senses, even the ones not expected. Wineries evoke the experiences of
taking a glass of wine, which is primarily realized through an individual’s sense of taste and
smell. Through the production and barrel chambers, visitors should get a sense of smell from
aging wine combined with wood and metal, demonstrating the successful aging of wine
according to Emeney, (2016). Further, the aging materials present in most wineries evoke a sense
of historicism according to Emeney, (2016) which customers connect with top quality wine.
Conclusion
In architecture, it is crucial that comfort is evoked by a building. A building is more than
just shelter but instead should be a subjective experience where people develop certain
interpretations of a space. The things an individual hears, smells, touches, and tests when they
enter a building evoke certain impressions regarding the building. The perception that an
individual has when they enter a space is based on their sensory experience. Architects should be
able to establish experiences in a building to ensure that visitors will remember a place. Sensory
experience is crucial to architectural space being considered successful. For instance, wineries
need to evoke favorable experiences with an individual’s sense of taste and smell to further
enhance the sense of a wine. Wineries are created with focus on architectural significance to
appeal to all senses.
