Experiti – mapping visit experiences

Published February 25, 2026

Experiti was made as a student project at École Estienne, Paris. It’s a kit composed of a binder and a set of three drawing templates, designed to map any kind of visiting experience: museum visits, forest walks, visits to a family member’s home, and more. The binder notably includes an instruction manual and a detailed legend, providing users with precise guidelines to help them create their own maps. The kit also contains various sheets for drawing, as well as a label to be filled in.

Its first section allows users to record essential personal data such as age or disabilities. The second section is used to indicate climatic and geographical information that enables a detailed description of the location of the experience. This information is crucial, as it may influence the representation of the visit. Animals, architecture, natural elements, individuals, transport, and furniture are among the many categories of elements available on the templates. This mapping process allows for a detailed and complex exploration of our visiting experiences. Users can precisely express certain tastes, smells, or sounds. For instance, a sound might be music or noise, long or short, high-pitched or low-pitched. These sensory elements can also be connected to our emotions, allowing us to understand their origins.
