As an architecture student, I was greatly inspired by this talk. It was amazing.

It's interesting watching multiple approaches to architecture cause on another talk of neuroarchitecture, they explain that on a subconscious level the big - open spaces can make us feel threatened, our bodu feel insecure if things are happening behind our back and the subconscious stays alert in case something dangerous happens. Crossing these two points of view could bring is to have greater spaces for people to live.

Amazing talk! After 150 days of quarantine, fresh air, natural light, vegetation, become priceless in domestic and working spaces.

as an architect student living in a room which its window has been blocked by the backyard`s massive shed, can definetely tell how important the fresh air is.

I have been studying and researching in this field for a long time and I can say that this lecture was amazing to me.

Brilliant to see practical solutions to the widespread 'clinical' work environments. Very much agree that a future of bland plastic surfaces holds much less appeal than textured and stimulating features. Great ideas to fuel the evolution of the workplace.

I’m now 26 and haven’t attended college or university. Mostly because I didn’t find what I was passionate about that could lead to a career. I realized that I loved creating an environment of experiences for people and am a bit of a perfectionist so nothing less is good enough. I’ve spent probably 90% of my life indoors thanks to living in cold Canada 🇨🇦. I want to create a place that’s self sustaining and stimulating for the human brain while creating learning experiences for those humans. Would architectural school be the right path for me?

Hello, I want to know more about the scientist Carlos and the device on his head. Can anyone help me?

Brilliant talk and brilliant thought process in forwarding architecture and design.

I agree with him 1000%. I feel a daily frustration with the current trend of boring, monotous, white/gray buildings that look the same in every country. They're so anti-human yet advertise themselves as "clean" and "flooded with sunlight". No, we need truly positive, humanistic architecture. I wish this guy and likeminded architects had more influence.

How can I find the CIA study on sensory deprivation? Could someone share ?

I think there’s a parallel to this distortion in humans. Starved of input from interaction with other people, we forget how to navigate with others. Even worse for anyone who was already clueless or miscued.

Very well explained, especially the part where he said engineers might have different opinions but the bigger question should be is it really good for the humanity?
