Sensory design plays an important role in the Mudlarking pop up. Using VR headsets “accommodates a wide range of physical and mental abilities for people of all ages”. Lupton & Lipps, 2018. One of the main aims is to incorporate a wider audience to learn about Mudlarking and the historical artefacts. Having 2 of the structures on the Creekside shoreline will enhance the sensory experience of those that visit the site. “Sensations respond to an insistent, ever-changing environment” Lupton & Lipps, 2018. While looking at the artefacts they will be standing on the water and hearing the surrounding noises of the Creekside.
