After reading the article, i found that myself are having/using some of the senses when i experiencing a structure or building. When i first visit a place or space or building which i never been there before, i will feel the environment through my ear by hearing, eye by seeing and my hand by touching frequently. By doing this, i can experience and appreciate more the art of work of the structure or the building.
The body senses help me a lot in better experiencing a building where i not only can see the beauty the building design but also i can feel the space psychologically through my senses. When i experiencing a building, i'm alway look into its detail such as the structure details, joints and etc.where i may use it as a reference into my own design.
