SCENT WORKSHOPS




DNA Partners offers Scent Workshops alongside its Interior Scent Consultancy Service. Launched in 2023 with our Scent Consultant Jessica Hannan, these workshops have been a joy to host amongst Architects and Designers in Clerkenwell and beyond, and are an opportunity for both educational CPD and motivational team-bonding experiences.

Guests are given a chance to learn about scents in public spaces, the history of how scent has evolved in hospitality and workplaces, and how it can be used, using science-backed research, to enhance the experience of interior design schemes.



The workshops are available in 3 tiers and are available for groups of 10-50 people. We offer the opportunity to develop and produce your own room scent and learn about fragrance as part of an educational olfactory journey.

Each guest takes home a goody bag along with newly-found and empowering knowledge to inform their next design scheme, or to simply change their perspective on this often-overlooked yet most important of the senses. 






CASE STUDY


DNA Partners has hosted multiple Scent Workshops for Architects & Designers with Fora Form . Fora Form are Scandinavia's largest furniture manufacturers for meeting spaces and office environments. Since their beginning 94 years ago, they have manufacturered many design classics from Norway's past, but also nuture and support contemporary Norwegian designers whilst celebrating the design stars of tomorrow.
Their focus on sustainability is pioneering in its approach, with the certification to prove it. As well as this, they prioritise the wellbeing of their users and functionality of their designs above all other elements - it made sense for them to introduce olfactory exploration to their network, opening conversations around function, wellness and usability,

WHY ARE MULTIPLE SENSES IMPORTANT IN DESIGN?


“At Fora Form and Ragnars we prioritise multiple senses as part of our product design. Our designs work with all elements of the environment to enhance your space and create more productive outcomes for people. We hope our guests will enjoy this experience in olfactory exploration.”

Pål Eid-Hviding | Head of Marketing at Fora Form











CASE STUDY


We hosted a Scent Workshop with Acoustic pioneers Abstracta at their Clerkenwell showroom, which was attended by Architects from practices such as Gensler, The Furniture Practice and BGY. 


“I was blown away with how much knowledge I took on board in such a short space of time at this Sensory Workshop - I suppose as a designer we are able to quickly understand anything that is to do with senses and how they make people feel - I thoroughly recommend attending if you get the chance”

EJ | Interior Designer


“Since attending this workshop I have approached my design schemes differently. It has added another dimension to my thought process in development and pushed me to further centre the wellbeing of our clients”

TK | Architect
