Sensory Sensitivity Stages Alexandra Jacobson
The Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) Typography Poster Series explores the challenges of processing sensory stimuli through typographic solutions. Using color contrast and visual elements, the series highlights the stages of sensory sensitivity , from mild discomfort to severe overload, illustrating how identical stimuli can affect individuals differently. Augmented Reality (AR) enhances the ...
Focusing on Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), I highlighted sensory sensitivity and its effects, depicting different stages of sensitivity using color contrast variations. Augmented Reality was integrated into the posters, introducing sound variations corresponding to each stage , which garnered positive feedback for its innovative approach.
Holt Bosse Welcomes Alexandra Jacobson as Art Director
Her latest poster series, Sensory Sensitivity Stages , employs a multi- sensory design approach, integrating sound through augmented reality (AR) and tactile elements through 3D printing, enhancing accessibility and engagement.
Sensory Sensitivity Stages For this project, I focused on Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), addressing challenges in organizing and processing sensory stimuli. In the Easense project, sensory sensitivity denotes an intensified response to stimuli, often causing discomfort, distraction, or avoidance of specific sensory experiences.
Research Alexandra Jacobson
It presents the research, design process, sensory experiences, and results aimed at better serving the sensory -sensitive population. Sensa Design is a platform created as a resource for designers to share and learn multi- sensory approaches when designing with the sensory sensitivity community in mind, particularly focusing on young adults.
This 9' x 7.5' tactile installation offered the public an interactive experience to explore their texture sensitivity spectrum. Visitors engaged with different textures, contributed to visualizations, and shared their experiences, fostering curiosity and understanding. This multi- sensory approach encouraged dialogue and raised awareness about sensory sensitivities. The installation ...

As the first designer in a family of artists, I grew up immersed in creative thinking, which inspired my commitment to solving problems through design. With a terminal degree in Visual Communication Design, I specialize in multi- sensory design, focusing on creating sensory -sensitive solutions that address the needs of neurodivergent audiences. My design philosophy emphasizes crafting systemic ...
Work Alexandra Jacobson
Design to Evolve Enhancing communication, educating for inclusivity, crafting immersive experiences, and evolving through collaboration to meet diverse needs.
There are the four patterns of sensory processing: low registration, sensation seeking, sensory sensitive and sensation avoiding. Low registration: A child with low registration does not recognize or process all of the incoming sensory information, and they do not compensate by trying to gain more sensory input to meet their needs.
