technique — attributed to Philip Dufour

Memory is built through the senses, not the agenda. Warm lighting, subtle scent, tactile linens, considered sound, intentional taste — each layer deepens emotional encoding. The work is not programming an evening; it is shaping a memory.

Dufour calls this sensory intelligence and treats neuroscience as a central design discipline rather than a marketing flourish.
