Description

Neuroarchitecture is the study of the impact of the built environment on the brain and how it affects our cognitive, emotional and physical well-being. There is a rising need to consider neuroarchitecture while designing schools. Learning spaces that properly apply the principles of neuroarchitecture will positively impact students' academic performance, emotional well-being, and physical health. Neuroarchitecture is about designing schools that are inclusive, stimulating, and supportive of learning in ways that promote a sense of purpose, belonging, and well-being, leading to a more positive and productive educational experience for students. This white paper provides compelling research-backed evidence regarding the many health and learning benefits of Neuroarchitecture and includes specific strategies for incorporating it into the design of schools.
