Sažetak
Architecture is a profession that absorbs knowledge from other fields like a sponge. Today architecture is on the brink of revolution stemming from its relationship with neuroscience. Architects have always been interested in exploiting how our brains interpret space. Our brains are deeply affected by the space around us. According to ‘’Academy of Neuroscience for Architecture’’, certain types of spaces actually stimulate the growth of new neurons. Such an insight could have huge implications since physical structures can reshape the brains of the users. Changes in the environment change the brain, and therefore they change our behaviour. If architects understood both fields, they might be able to design better architecture for future needs, create places that would adequately meet users’ needs and stimulate their mental development, and improve students’ learning abilities.
