Designing Humane Places

Boston — March 29th, 2025

We are very pleased to be collaborating with Citymakers Collective, The HAPI, and iMotions to bring you a one-day workshop in Boston this March 29th, when you can learn evidence-based design strategies for more livable cities from world-class leaders. Tickets and details are available here.

Ever wonder why certain places make us feel more alive? There’s a science behind it!

To build better cities, we must understand who we are as humans. Emerging tech in spatial cognition illuminates how we can build places people love.

In this one-day workshop, you’ll learn the latest in human biology and cognitive science to discern design lessons for our built environment.

  • Discover the latest breakthroughs linking the human mind and design
  • Understand how humans map and navigate new places
  • Explore how our minds conceive and comprehend space
  • Study unconscious psychological reactions to different stimuli
  • Network with the leading cognitive scientists specializing in spatial design and architects specializing in cognitive reactions to space

You will walk away from this workshop with specific design considerations that should guide how we design the human environment. You’ll never view cities the same way again!
