🟡 Maria Araya Leon and Ainoa Abella Garcia, team members of Elisava Research, led the workshop "Innovation through neuroarchitecture and applied research methodologies" at interihotel Madrid. This workshop explained and applied a research methodology to understand how to apply evidence-based design to architectural projects following the foundations of neuroarchitecture to achieve comprehensive well-being. Through a case study, they detailed and explored how this research methodology has been implemented in the Gastrosense project and the tools used.

"Circularity isn't an option, it's the only way forward." At this year's Asia Infrastructure Forum in Singapore, Tina Qiu spoke about how PLP Architecture and PLP Labs are pushing to create circular economies and cities. This talk is part of Tina's ongoing series across Southeast Asia, emphasising the crucial role of circular design in our future. Watch the film below to see how our industry must step up to reduce its environmental impact. #AsiaInfrastructureForum #AIF2024 #circulareconomy
