We now expect our public buildings to meet physical access needs; it's time to turn to the creation of neurodivergent-inclusive spaces. Sensing Spaces is your guide to making that essential shift in the built environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing from recent research and real-life stories, the book explores how architecture can better support the 15% of people who are neurodivergent. From the voices of neurodivergent professionals themselves to detailed examples of best practice, this is a compelling blueprint for change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacked with UK-based case studies and international comparisons, you'll see how inclusive design comes to life - from workplace layouts to public spaces, and from hospitals to transport hubs. The book digs into practical detail - lighting, acoustics, materials, and more - showing how thoughtful design can reduce stress and restore dignity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrucially, it explains why designing for neurodiversity benefits everyone. Architects, developers, and building users alike will gain a roadmap for creating environments that are not just functional, but fundamentally fair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatured projects:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Mossbrook Special Primary School by Sarah Wigglesworth Architects (Sheffield, UK)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Westmark School by NBBJ (Los Angeles, USA)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Virgin Media HQ by Gensler (London, UK)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* St Olavs Hospital by Nordic Office of Architecture (Trondheim, Norway)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* TouchBase Pears by Howells (Birmingham, UK).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHelen Parton\u003c\/b\u003e is an architecture and interiors journalist with over 20 years’ experience.
