We are Marta Bakowski (industrial designer and colourist) & Carole Calvez (scent designer and nose). This page is dedicated to showcasing the fruit of our ongoing creative and collaborative research on the dialog between the world of scent and the world or colour.

MARJORAM

This low relief collage reads like a sequence made up of superimposed planes, revealing the architectural character of the smell of Marjoram.

The solid planes represent the three main facets of marjoram (a fresh and tangy note, a green note and a damp and dusty note). The hatched planes represent the passages and variations perceptible between the facets.

The experience of an odor is made up of passages. It is an evolving perception in which it is possible to detect a transition between light and darkness, opacity and translucency, verticality and horizontality.
