From Human-Centered to Human-Responsive Design
As our understanding of how people experience and interact with spaces continues to evolve, how can design move beyond a one-size-fits-all approach to become truly responsive to individual needs? In this thought-provoking presentation, Cambridge researcher Matteo Zallio explores the shift from human-centered to human-responsive design, examining how neuroinclusive principles can help create environments that better support diverse ways of thinking, sensing and experiencing the world. Discover how a deeper understanding of human behaviour, sensory needs and cognitive diversity can shape more inclusive, adaptable and meaningful spaces, and what this means for the future of architecture and interior design.
