“Ignite Your Senses” Alternative Design Podcast by Kimball International

Join Kimball International for their podcast, Alternative Design, which focuses on empowering creatives to improve the human experience through the spaces they design.

Episode 15: “Ignite Your Senses”

Belonging is one of the most desired outcomes in the workplace today, even more than productivity! But instead of debating whether commute reimbursements or paid lunches will get people back into the offices, we decided to explore a more alternative solution. We believe the power to motivate employees and support wellbeing could lie in the 5 senses and how they could be leveraged to create places to belong. Out Ignite Your Senses event we recently held in Atlanta features a Panel Discussion with Chef Freddy Money of Atlas and the Garden Room, Clint Zeagler, Wearable Tech Researcher at Georgia Tech, Ari Peralta, Sensory Designer and Neuroscientist and Tara Headley, Interior Designer at IA and IIDA Georgia Chapter President. Tune in to hear their ideas on how to design for the “sense” of belonging.
