Neuroarchitecture turns intuition into intention.
In our journey to understand how to shape the built environment around human experiences, we are deeply invested in contributing to the foundation of the burgeoning transdisciplinary field of Neuroarchitecture. We believe the design process should start by exploring the connections between humans and spaces, making the insights we gain from neuroarchitectural research crucial to how we approach architecture and design.
Below, you can find our latest findings and thoughts.
Our TEDx Talk is out! Neuroarchitecture: Designing for the Senses and the Unconscious Mind
Ákos’ TEDx talk explores how architectural spaces shape us—often unconsciously—and how this curiosity gradually evolved into the foundation of Noumen Studio’s approach. Tracing his path from early sensitivity to space through professional practice and research, the talk introduces neuroarchitecture as a way to better understand the relationship between design, perception, and human experience.

What can neuroscience reveal about how we experience architecture? An interview with Vittorio Gallese.
After both speaking at the Atmospheres and Architectonics conference at MOME Budapest, Noumen Studio co-founder Ákos Orbán had the opportunity to sit down with Vittorio Gallese, a pioneering figure in cognitive neuroscience and co-discoverer of mirror neurons.
