Interactions between neurology and architecture – creating the built environment and its impact on the brain

摘要

The concept of neuromorphic architecture is based on the existence of interactions between the human brain and the built environment. Fred Gage, an American professor, neuroscientist and precursor of brain neuroplasticity, observed that “although the brain controls our behavior and genes control brain structure, the environment can modulate the function of genes and ultimately the structure of the brain and therefore can change our behavior. The architectural design changes our brains and behavior”.
