Our services
As urbanization increases, so does mental illness – a challenge that comes at a high cost to both individuals and society. Research clearly shows that our built environment affects everything from stress levels and immune function to concentration and mental well-being. Through neuroarchitecture and neurodesign, we can change this – by combining neuroscience, AI, architecture, and design to create environments that actively promote health, well-being, and sustainable development.
Scientific Analysis and Measurement
We use advanced methods to understand how environments affect people:
- Biomarkers and inflammation analysis
- Neurotech and brain imaging (EEG, fMRI)
- Physiological measurements of stress and well-being
- VR/AR simulations to test design concepts
Design Consultation Throughout the Process
For architecture teams and project managers:
- Specialized expertise in applied neuroscience from early concept to final result
- Evidence-based recommendations for spatial design
- Optimization of lighting and daylight integration
- Acoustic design to reduce cognitive load
- Integration of natural elements and biophilic materials
- Activities linked to sustainability reporting (human, ecological, economic)
Strategic Advisory for Organizations
For municipalities, authorities, and companies:
- Development of strategic guidelines
- Change management based on neuroscience research
- Implementation aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals
- Organizational support for health-promoting work environments
Environments We Work With
- Healthcare environments – Hospitals and clinics that support recovery and reduce stress
- Educational spaces – Schools and universities that optimize learning and concentration
- Workplaces – Offices that increase productivity and reduce absenteeism
- Urban environments and public spaces – Places that foster safety and social cohesion
- Residential environments – Homes and neighborhoods that promote rest and recovery
World-Leading Expertise
Together with University College London (UCL), RISE has established the world’s first international center for neuroarchitecture and neurodesign. In close collaboration with industry and leading researchers, we develop groundbreaking solutions in NeuroArchitecture and NeuroDesign – where brain research and innovative technology are combined with architecture and design to reshape the environments we live in.
