We have all had access at some time to spaces that, because of their size or layout, overwhelm us and others that, for whatever reason, transmit peace and well-being. <\/span><\/p>\n

This is something of which architecture is fully aware and which is leading more and more architects to rely on other disciplines such as neurology to create spaces that, in addition to adapting to the needs of their clients, are capable of generating sensations. <\/span>create spaces that, in addition to adapting to the needs of their clients, are capable of generating sensations.<\/b><\/p>\n

This is precisely what neuroarchitecture tries to achieve. A concept that we are going to try to explore in the following lines, and that <\/span>promises to shape the future of architecture.<\/b><\/p>\n

What is neuroarchitecture?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Neuroarchitecture is a discipline that, by combining neuroscience and architecture <\/span>the combination of neuroscience and architecture<\/b>studies how the built environment – from the layout of spaces to materials and lighting – influences brain activity, <\/span>affecting both our moods and general well-being.<\/b> Its origins date back to the mid-20th century, when American virologist Jonas Salk, after traveling to Italy and sensing how classical architecture was capable of influencing brain activity, affected both our moods and general well-being.<\/span> felt how classical architecture was able to change his emotional spirit,<\/b> decided to open the Salk Institute, considered the mecca of neuroarchitecture.<\/span> His contributions were fundamental for different scientists from all over the world to start observing how different areas of the brain <\/span>how different areas of the brain respond to specific environmental stimuli. <\/b> Thanks to the different results of the many interesting investigations that have been carried out all over the world, architects and designers specializing in neuroarchitecture today are capable of<\/span> create spaces that produce tangible improvements in people’s mental and physical health.<\/b><\/p>\n
