Neuroscience Does Design: What the Brain's Architecture Can Teach Architects/
Material type: ArticlePublication details: Wiley, 2020.Description: Vol 90, Issue 6, 2020:( 94-99 p.)Online resources: In: Architectural designSummary: Neuroscientists based at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre for Neural Circuits and Behaviour in London, Danbee Kim and Adam R Kampff study how the brain builds a mental model of its environment. Here, they imagine ‘built environments’ derived from these mental models. Their proposed designs may be ugly and they will likely fall over, but they hope they will distil insights from neuroscientific research in a form that facilitates discussion with the architects and planners responsible for creating environments in which the brain thrives.Item type | Current library | Collection | Call number | Vol info | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds | |
