Testimonial:
When I saw the title of the class "Designing with the 5 Senses" it immediately caught my attention. What I didn't realize is just how much I was going to enjoy this class and how much it enriched my creative skills and even my personal life. The tools and information shared in the class are absolutely brilliant. Esther is an amazing teacher and I loved every second of her class. This class truly sparked all our senses!Thank you Esther, I am forever grateful for your class.

Esther is a talented A&D professional who I’ve had the pleasure of knowing through her class offerings at Purchase College. Her strong communication skills and careful attention to detail make her well suited to instruct others. But, beyond that, Esther inspires others to step outside of conventional thought processes, and pivot perception (i.e. to “view” spaces using all 5 senses, and not simply by sight) to absorb a more complete understanding and appreciation for how a space is supposed to feel, perform, and exist. If you’ve ever had the opportunity to speak with Esther, you know how engaging she is, and also, how she makes a conscious effort to understand and celebrate what you have to say and offer in return. If given the opportunity to work with Esther, I’d recommend you take it - and expect a thoughtful, complementary working relationship with incredible results . - Lisa Dutra
