We form first impressions and make assumptions about people within 3 minutes of meeting someone new, and this comes from a combination of elements: our appearance, our bearings, our posture. Our outer appearance, is therefore a tool that we use to try and peer into someone’s essence and understand who they are.
Over the centuries, knowledge from empirical observations about people’s appearance were reflected in art. For example, Renaissance artists painted nobility with higher foreheads, to induce the viewer to see them as majestic, decisive, and heads.
Yesalwa believes that these empirical observations regarding people’s appearance and their personality hold their weight, and we believe that we all have the power to explore and craft who we are through learning about how we present ourselves to the world.
We only use the analysis that can be made from this knowledge and the morphology of our users as a starting line, to figure out where our users our starting. Together with the AI, we will then establish and choose over time who they want to be and what fits them.
A+O Method Overview
Design
The A+O Method is a personality methodology that relies on empirical observations about how physical traits reflect one’s temperament.
The A+O Method uses 4 key aspects: the cheek (Spring), the forehead (Summer), the jaw (Autumn) and asymmetry (Winter). Different physical traits emphasize different personality aspects.
Depending on the combination of one’s physical traits, some aspects may be stronger than others. The combination of someone’s strongest aspects helps us understand their personality, of which there are 16 archetypes.
How a person affects others often mirrors their preferences, communication habits, desires, and the type of environment they thrive in. Leveraging this principle, the Yesalwa AI provides tailored recommendations, empowering users to align their lifestyles with their authentic selves.
