Forms of multi-sensory design/branding // multi-sensory and inclusive design ?

 Design: 

  • A review of multi-sensory technologies in a Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) classroom. (immersive VR, information technology, learning motivation, learning outcome, multi-sensory instruction, multi-touch tablets, multimedia, somatosensory stimuli, virtual reality, visual stimuli) 'What multi-sensory technologies are available to use in a science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) classroom, and do they affect student engagement and learning outcomes?'
  • A Brief History of Multisensory Design (https://www.metropolismag.com/architecture/multisensory-architecture-design-history/) 
  • Understanding multi-sensory and inclusive design principles. (https://medium.com/design-intelligence/project-kickoff-understanding-multi-sensorial-and-inclusive-design-principles-1d3e5cf99aa8)

  • Universal Design - good term for researching articles 

Multi-sensory and inclusive design? 

'Ultimately, sensory design is inclusive. It embraces users with different abilities and special needs. After viewing tactile braille maps and architectural layouts that increase mobility for blind people, we were inspired to design for our subset of the visually-impaired.
But we also saw pieces that would not only be beneficial for people with disabilities, but for able-bodied people as well — like utensils to minimize spilling for people with arthritis, grab bars designed for wheelchair users, and a smart voting booth with an audio controller for those hard of hearing. Hence, subtle adaptations to existing designs can integrate people with disabilities into societal structures, instead of providing an entirely separate way of conducting life. This is smart, inclusive design that breeds desegregation and champions equality.'

“Our greatest asset when we design is human diversity.” —Tim Allen
