Designing Neuroinclusive Spaces: Sensory Processing and Cognitive Well-Being and Neuroinclusion
Work environments today need to be designed to be inclusive for all. But to be inclusive, we need to embrace design principles that aid in accommodating various personality traits, work styles, and neurotypes. The fact is that today we are living in a time of increased numbers and awareness about individuals with neurosensitives and special needs, such as ADHD, Autism, and Dyslexia. In fact, 1 in 5 people are considered neurodivergent, but fewer than 50% know it. And when we design for the extreme, we benefit the mean, for everyone is impacted by sensory stimuli in the built environment, even neurotypicals. Spaces today need to reflect the diverse makeup of organizations. Not only is designing to be inclusive the right thing to do, but there is also a compelling business case for it.
