Re-definition

Sense is a basically a term that define the capability of someone doing something. If someone had a good sense on something, that person has the capability of understanding that topic. If someone has a good sense of humour, that person might become the most popular one in high school and of course, our real five senses are the superpowers that make as capable about most of the things in the environment.

If human being senses are important that much, why do not we consider the unrelated (with our design) senses of human being. Even though you design a furniture that appeal to people’s eyesight and sense of touch, would it be also satisfying for sense of hearing.
