You sit down to work, but a stream of external and internal stimuli begins to interfere: a noise from the street, an intrusive thought, a sudden idea. NothingContinueContinue reading “How Neuroarchitecture Can Help the ADHD Mind Thrive”
Neuroarchitecture: How Eye Tracking is Transforming Design
We know that children’s attention is brief by nature. In the case of children with ADHD or other neurodivergent conditions, that window may be even shorter, more fragmented, and more sensitive to the environment. However, most school spaces are still designed as if all students have the same ability to focus, filter stimuli, and orientContinueContinue reading “Neuroarchitecture: How Eye Tracking is Transforming Design”
Neurodiversity and Architecture: Keys to an Inclusive World
Liam is five. On his first day at a new school, he didn’t sit where instructed or follow the routine. Instead, he moved constantly—reading every sign, poster, and label in sight, not just in the corridors, but throughout the entire school. His teachers tried to redirect him, sometimes even running after him as he slippedContinueContinue reading “Neurodiversity and Architecture: Keys to an Inclusive World”

En lugar de considerar condiciones como el autismo, el TDAH, la dislexia o la dispraxia como déficits, la neurodiversidad las reconoceContinueContinue reading “Semana de la neurodiversidad: Repensando el diseño para todas las mentes”
Neurodiversity Week: Rethinking Design for Every Mind
Neurodiversity Celebration Week, observed annually from 17 to 23 March, is a global movement that shifts the perspective on neurological differences. Rather than viewing conditions such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia as deficits, neurodiversity recognises them as natural variations in human cognition. This week serves as a powerful reminder to embrace inclusion, foster understanding,ContinueContinue reading “Neurodiversity Week: Rethinking Design for Every Mind”
Diseñando espacios inclusivos para poblaciones neurodiversas
Los términos neurodiversidad y neurodivergencia a menudo se usan de manera intercambiable, pero representan conceptos distintos dentro de las discusiones sobre las diferencias neurológicas. Neurodiversidad es un término inclusivo que reconoce las variaciones naturales en la función cerebral, enfatizando que estas diferencias no son déficits, sino aspectos valiosos de la diversidad humana. Diagrama de condicionesContinueContinue reading “Diseñando espacios inclusivos para poblaciones neurodiversas”
