According to the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development), in the21st century, we are living in a New Age of Biology, acknowledging the rapid developmentof transformative findings in the life sciences. The Routledge Handbook of Neuroscience andthe Built Environment shows how these new findings impact architecture, planning, anddesign, changing our understanding how people respond to their surroundings, and howthese environments can be optimized for human well-being.A total of 31 chapters, presented in six sections, discuss human perception, the needfor connection, and how design impacts health and well-being, through topics such asneuroaesthetics, color, memory and place, proportion, sound, neurophenomenology,neurodiversity, biophilia, beauty, artificial intelligence, among many others. Expertinternational contributors look to answer key questions as follows: What do architects anddesigners need to know about neuroscience? How does architecture and design impact usnon-consciously? Why is acknowledging the human subliminal experience important? Whattools can designers use to “see” our subliminal behaviors?This volume will be important reading for the design community, whether practicing,educating, or studying, as well as policy makers and public health professionals.
