1. 1. On the Textility of Smell in Spatial Design

   Författare :Jyoti Kapur; Jo-Anne Bichard; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

   Sammanfattning : The ocular-centric approach predominant in the field of design, particularly textile and spatial design, focuses on visual aesthetics and visually mediated interactions. Whereas the non-visual materialities of a space, such as smells, are ignored in the design process, meaning that interior spaces with homogenously odourless environments lack interactions with the olfactory.

7. 5. Urban Design and Space Use. A Study of Dar es Salaam City Centre

   Författare :Jacob L Kimaryo; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Physical planning; Fysisk planering; inredningsarkitektur; Arkitektur; interior design; Architecture; Tanzania; urban form; space use; urban space; urban design; developing countries; City centres; Dar es Salaam;

   Sammanfattning : Albeit there is a general consensus that urban design in the twentieth century failed in relation to space use, systematic research on this aspect has been very limited or at most inadequate in the developing countries. This study focuses on the above failure of urban design in this century with specific reference to the developing countries through an analysis of Dar es Salaam city centre, Tanzania. LÄS MER
