Katie Burrell's The Perfumer's District in Marseille was driven by an investigation into architecture and the senses. "By taking a stand on our ocularcentric society, the thesis questions why the sense of sight has become so predominant in architectural culture when there are four others. A hybrid programme of a boutique soap and essential oil production was developed alongside an experiential purpose for the public, to seduce and manipulate the senses," she explains.
