Neuroarchitecture: How Home Design Affects Brain Health – Ana Mombiedro's New Book
Ana Mombiedro, an architect and neuropsychologist, has published 'Espacios que cuidan tu cerebro' (Spaces That Care for Your Brain), a guide to neuroarchitecture. The book explains how light, sound, textures, and visual order directly impact emotions, rest, concentration, and health. Mombiedro, a leading voice in Spanish-speaking neuroarchitecture, combines architecture, neuroscience, and psychology to offer practical tools for transforming homes into sensory refuges. The work argues that design is not just about form but about creating conditions for real bodies and real needs. It covers topics such as how color affects calm and focus, how to reduce noise and stress, and the importance of natural elements. The book is published by Planeta and available for purchase.
