we create spaces and think these are the most important, but the reality is, in many ways, that we still find ourselves most authentically in nature 58 Weaving natural elements into contemporary interiors We know that looking at nature lowers our cortisol levels, and it is still the natural environment that we feel the most profoundly calm in. Therefore it is essential to consider the many ways in which we can introduce this powerful concept to our interiors. susan — Acknowledging that we are deeply connected and wired to the rhythm of nature, many human-built environments are starting to bring in biophilic elements. susan — When you come inside, in some ways, you’re taking yourself out of the natural world that you were born into. We create spaces and think these are the most important, but the reality is, in many ways, that we still find ourselves most authentically in nature. For example, if you want to generate a feeling of healing and restorative quality, explore biophilic design that incorporates greenery as well as other natural elements and materials into the built environment. This could be a piece of furniture in warm oak wood, the use of earth tones, or even the humidity of air flowing through a building. Our inclination toward soft shapes Research has shown that the smooth curves of modernist sculptor Jean Arp produce a pleasant sensation in the beholder – that we prefer rounded shapes to sharp angles. In a similar manner our hands naturally envelop the rotund shape of a cup or the arched frame of a chair. susan — There are certain shapes we just gravitate towards, like the shape of the cup, because our hands have shaped it and they can embrace it, hold it. We have so many millions of synapses and nerves in our hands that connect to our brain and what feels intuitively right. Honoring these physiologies is really when I think design gets better. When we disregard them, it's also an aesthetic experience - everything's aesthetic. But I think there's a difference between what really moves you – peak aesthetic experiences – and things that are simply utilitarian. Embracing tactility Of course, we not only perceive the world visually, but also sensorily, among others through touch. Tactility, or the haptic experience, is an essential part of the neuroaesthetic perception of an object or space. Through our hands, we can feel the essence of an object, deciphering its materiality and how it was made – knowing through our hands. susan — Our skin is the biggest organ on our body and it's so responsive. So you cannot underestimate what texture does. We are not only about what something looks like. You might be drawn to a certain kind of texture, and how it feels when you are engaging with it is incredibly powerful. It is much more powerful than seeing it. Designing with intention We have an incredible toolbox at our disposal, working with color, light, objects, sound, scent, textures and more. How we wield these all depends on our intention. susan — The science that we're doing is informing new ways of understanding how to use the same ingredients, but use them in different or new ways for an end purpose. I think we can get closer to understanding these ingredients by marrying science and the arts together.•
We naturally gravitate towards certain shapes, in particular smooth, rounded curves. Combining this idea with a strong focus on tactility allows one to create impactful atmospheres and spaces. 59 susan magsamen is the founder and executive director of the International Arts + Mind Lab at Johns Hopkins University and co-director of the NeuroArts Blueprint.
