During my study abroad experience in Rome, I became fascinated by the historic door knockers found throughout the city. While many people pass by these details without noticing them, I was drawn to their craftsmanship, texture, and symbolism. In The Eyes of the Skin, Juhani Pallasmaa argues that architecture should engage all of the senses rather than relying solely on vision. The door knockers I selected throughout this project embody this idea by inviting touch and creating a connection between people and architecture. Their worn surfaces, intricate forms, and handcrafted qualities reveal stories of age, use, and cultural identification. Helping to transform a simple functional object into a meaningful architectural experience.
