the space in which we are
right now this sports hall
you think your bodies influence and
in our brains and if I told you that
this space can affect your
behavior is curious as per
example when we are facing a square
cement our brain interprets that
is immersed in something hard and chooses a
alarm attitude what causes that
our body is in tension
whereas when we are in presence
of water or earth our body
architects usually relax
They have not taught us to measure indicators
psychological and many times
we do not know the effect that we are going to create
when we design a space
we have the feeling of controlling the
design but it’s not like that you always have
have ever felt overwhelmed
enter a space but you have not
I know how to say why I am going to
explain that because and you will see some
keys to avoid it and get more
wellness
More than 90% of the time we had
inside buildings or surrounded by them
and many are not thought or
built to make us feel good
this situation causes states of
continuous effort both physically and
psychic
from the moment we enter a
space the parameters that the
architect has used to
designing it will impact yes or yes in
Our brain
the architecture does not act directly
about the body but it does
through our nervous system
let’s go with an example imagine that
you enter a Japanese restaurant with
tables separated from each other
natural light a warm serene atmosphere
made of paper a space of this type
induces a way of being and a state
psychological and physical very particular
as opposed to a restaurant with
Striking furniture uncomfortable furniture
luminous signs walls
dirty objects by the middle the first
power a longer breath and
deeper
however in the second our body
will adapt to the situation by reducing
our breathing what
It probably causes us discomfort
a more expansive breathing always
it gives us pleasure
that’s why it’s no coincidence that
breathing be the symbol of
well-being and that the spaces
that benefit us seem more
beautiful
On the other hand it can happen to us that a
architecture work have great value
architectural and that for different
reasons do not produce sensations
positive or vice versa that a work does not
have a great value from the point of
architectural view but that we
produce very pleasant sensations
in front of a building our answer
is shared within each culture and
It depends on our education than
we have learned about what pleases us
or we do not like you at any time
visited a work a work of
important architecture that has
liked but that you have seen
conditioned to say that if in that
moment what happens is that we suffer
a form of psychological tension where
we feel that what I perceive does not fit
before that work and what you have learned
has to please me this is called
cognitive dissonance two thoughts
that come into contradiction
this situation occurs because
we are socially conditioned and
culturally to react in a way
determined
however our senses perceive
beyond what we have learned
socially that is to say the people
reasonable before a work so
instinctive natural
I experienced it myself when I visited
the jewish museum of berlin its spaces
angled with pointed structures
they are very asphyxiating on the facade
zig zag windows appear that simulate
scars the height of the spaces is
lengthen there are dark labyrinths games of
shadows throughout the building are the
inclined where you get dizzy
I remember when I went through this museum
I felt chills and after
go through the best sensations of
body as of uneasiness as of
restlessness but these feelings that
experience a lot of people not only me
happened to me I’m sure if I
visit jce he found out something very similar
because precisely that was the
intention of the architect Francisco Mora
a neuroscientist and professor of
human physiology showed that at
observe sharp and broken spaces
that the amygdala is not activated a
brain region that is associated with
fear of anxiety and danger is
say as architects the environments that
we create can in turn environments
what we design can in turn
designed to us this is possible
thanks to what is known as
neuronal plasticity is as if the
brain just like plastic it
will adapt to virtually any
mold because nowadays we already know that
the brain is malleable and how can it
be this architecture property useful
imagine that in the future it would be possible
an adaptive design where each step of
a project was revised based on
of whether it produces a growing welfare or
decreasing and that thanks to this design
people will think better
will relate better or be more kind
in society is what today is
known as sustainable architecture
neurologically another example that you
I wanted to tell about this kind of
architecture is the library of seattle
in washington
the most innovative library that I
visited so far is a space
that offers a very rich atmosphere in
stimuli which in theory it is
good you meet the first
encouragement when you look at the facade
fix a steel and glass grid in
diamond shape hits a lot
because it reflects all movements
both the vehicles and the
people who passed by included
I
this library offers various areas
very different from each other that to
be organized in very different plants
from each other and make it easy
get lost consists of five platforms
that are connected by elevators and
escalators and are interspersed with
Rest spaces in this building
I did not know very well how to move and in
several times I felt quite
disoriented
Christ made holzer and víctor
corners and two Swiss neuroscientists
they investigated the reaction of the brain
human before different environments and just
right here in this library
they observed that most people
who visited her missed this guy
of stress is known as stress
unconscious environmental when I entered by
the fifth avenue to the library
I found a large living room
the most unique space in the building
when I was jim visualize several
packages climbing stairs a
others that came down and I thought now what
lame
let’s see what plant I’m in since
I want to go
as I did not have an answer I took the
stairs that went up south and through them and
arrives at a room where the
computers
I looked around and saw other
stairs that went up again and that
I then started to rise as
I was going up I was seeing areas of the
library where you could not access and
Clear
imagine my bewilderment spaces that
you are watching but you do not know how
access them
It’s very frustrating and I tell you because
there is a contradiction between what
you see and what you can do in this case
what you can not do is access the
rooms
behind the glass continue to rise
down the stairs and reach the top floor
the reading area a space of some
impressive proportions very well
very wide illuminated where I saw the
people read quietly but I do not
removed from the head the image of the
saga of books like that day I had
to find out
so I headed back from the
escalators to go down to the
he hopes that they were only from his life that he
they went down that are not reversible and now
what
how I felt dizzy pass search
other stairs and take the elevator
disembark again in the room
computers because I found out that this
plant led directly to the
entrance of the book area where I
I wanted to go
the spiral of books is named
because it’s a continuous ramp of
shelves which runs spirally
which contains the different collections
thematic
once inside and how the books are my
weakness
I was walking calmly through the
ramp and when I realized
it turns out that it had gone up four floors
the four plants of the clear spiral and
where I was in the reading area another
so many visual stimuli zones
where I had already been colors too
Intense books and books and more books
At the end I said look I’m exhausted I’m going
to the cafeteria and there I stayed
the goal of the architect his intention
theoretical in this library was
mainly force people to
interconnect that people could
see and be seen by others all
the time but the experience killed the
theory I felt frustrated dizzy
confused at times discount disoriented
puzzled and personally not
interact with anyone
we all like to interact because we
allows us to feel connected
but, paradoxically, many
Sometimes we are not connected or with
our own body
a very clear example are the heels in
women but at the moment I like you
the heels and he used them
However, I also think that it is a
beauty canon accepted by the
society and become a convention
social that limits our freedom of
move and wear comfortable heels
comfortable is not
as our culture usually
is disconnected from the body
It is not uncommon to think that many architects
they design spaces that are not very
our true needs
the architect enric miralles and to the point
from space
never notice and I would add
[Music]
look at yourself and what your body says is
what is made to move about that
some architects explore the
movement as a way to recover
this connection with the body
specifically his fujimoto an architect
Japanese that I believe in the tree house with
spaces that require the person to
move to walk to sit down to lie down
to climb as if jumping from branch to branch
for equal to fujimoto the base of the
architecture has to be the welfare of
mind and body
in short we can not know the cost
in terms of physical well- being and
psychological balance of a design
Neglected and deprived of meaning but yes
we know that architecture is never
neutral either it is healing or it is
harmful and how can you know if you are
before one or the other
nico salineros a renowned mathematician
and urban planner proposes a very technical
simple
we just have to ask ourselves two questions
what space makes me feel better than
space makes me better if we take in
account health principles when designing
our spaces will be more human
