Episode Details

Neurodesign isn't a style or a palette — it's a performance claim about what a building does to the nervous system of the person inside it. This episode works through the SPEC framework (spatial, psychological, environmental, cognitive) and the concept of neurosustainability: every space either spends or restores a finite account of attention, vigilance, and stress regulation. From compression-and-release entrances to the melanopic content of morning light to why open-plan offices fail on vigilance rather than volume, we trace what it actually takes to design a building optimized for human neurological wellbeing — and why optimizing one axis quietly wrecks another.
