... One that is consistently echoed in the architectural context related to the work of the mind/brain, initiated by Juhani Pallasmaa and Harry Francis Mallgrave. During their development, Pallasmaa and Mallgrave sharpened the previous architectural context on the relationship between architecture and empathy (Pallasmaa et al., 2015), which seeks to sharpen the sensitivity in seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, and feeling what those with physical limitations feel are generally categorized as physical disabilities. Empathy emphasizes being with other people more than relationships that place other people as manipulative objects (Bullmer, 1975). ...
In order to face the era of technological disruption and the industrial revolution 4.0, it is necessary to improve the curriculum and educational methods for the Bachelor of Architecture that is friendly for disabilities. Therefore, it is necessary to innovate, research, and apply online and digital technology, architectural computing systems that can be utilized optimally in XYZ University’s architectural education model. Architectural education must be sensitive and do self-introspection so that it can detect its position during the rapid development of science and technology. Specialized classroom design includes seating position, layout, optimized space, and usage of special computer applications to help students with disabilities in the study and learning process. The methodology approach used Descriptive, experimental, and quantitative methods based on an interdisciplinary approach centralized on psychological methods and designing facilities that support the learning process. The research resulted in designating a position in the classroom that is ideal for a student with disabilities. This position helps them to participate in the classroom efficiently. Equipment such as speakers and an LED TV is placed to help people with disabilities. Transcription software is used to transcribe lecturers in real-time. This research was conducted with the use of compatible software to get optimal results. Several methods and tools are used to support this research to obtain optimal results for the learning process, especially for people who are deaf or have low vision. Audio and visual aspects are prioritized without neglecting other supporting aspects.

... Artificial environments are turning the world outside in, And that's not the way to save the planet (Simon Marvin,2017). Contemporary architecture has started to receive more accusations of emotional coldness, Restrictive aesthetics, distanced from human and life (Pallasmaa, 2015). Recent studies by the World Federation for Mental Health (2016) reveals the most significant illness in 2030 is going to be the mental disorder of "depression," according to statistics,80-90% most of our time spent inside buildings. ...
Newberg concluded his well-known scientific experiment, wrote,“ A single word has the power to influence the expression of genes that regulate physical and emotional stress”. However, could architectural space also speak? Alter the expression of genes? This study aimed to investigate the relationship between architecture, brain and genes. Objectives, to test the influence of architecture over brain’s “electrical-activity, and to develop, the theory of space and genes. Research-methodology, Firstly, An integrated approach for literature review. Secondly,An experimental approach. Thirdly,An integrative analysis. Findings showed a significant change of brain-electricity by change of environments. Therefore, alteration in the expression of genes.

... Recent studies by the World Federation for Mental Health (2016) reveals the most significant illness in 2030 is going to be the mental disorder of "depression" according to statistics, most of our time spent inside buildings and Architects design buildings. Hence, the importance of "re-connecting architecture with emotions and brain" is an essential solution to improve the quality of life for future generations; However, contemporary architecture has started to receive more accusations of emotional coldness, restrictive aesthetics, distanced from human and life (Pallasmaa, 2015). "Architecting" human's emotions of positivity mean designing environments of happiness, excitement, creativity, empathy, and performance-boosting, to improve human's ultimate performance and behaviour for a better quality of life. ...
The belief that the environment shapes human emotions followed by behaviour is not new, as acknowledged by many researchers. Recent studies show that the most significant illness by 2030 is depression, as most of our time spent inside the buildings. Hence, the importance of "re-connecting architecture with emotions" is an essential solution to improve the quality of life. A single-case experimental design (SCED) aimed to investigate the relationship between neural underpinnings of the brain, for a single participant and various environments. Data collected was based on the Electroencephalography tests. Findings showed a significant contrast between different water elements and environmental settings, each with its unique effect on participant emotions as well as the electrical activity of the brain.

... The awareness of human-centred architecture; and aesthetic nourishment in design is an essential element for improving the quality of life, on a spiritual, emotional and biological level. Contemporary architecture has received an enormous number of accusations of emotional coldness and restrictive aesthetics as wells as its distance from humans and life (Pallasmaa, 2015). The present research aimed to improve the understanding of the neural underpinnings of an individual, which influences the emotional state and behaviour of a user impacted by the environment. ...

The retail atmosphere is changing fast. A physical-based retail is developed by creating an experience with user empathy. The object of this research is an art fashion retail boutique fashion with art content and experiences that represent the uniqueness of customer segmentation. This type of retail will collapse if there are no repeat visits. Consequently, the retail resilience will be declined. Therefore, it is crucial to conceptualize how the customer experience in a retail setting influences purchasing decision-making. This study focuses on designing for customers with specific needs to gain personal experiences in art fashion retail. This experience is understood effectively through an empathic process. Spatial quality is related to the atmosphere. Understanding the atmosphere and customers is related to the existence of spatial settings, activities, senses, and behavior. The relationship between this aspect becomes the basis for developing the concept of personalizing from the customer's point of view. The strategy used is qualitative research to explore customer interaction experiences with spatial settings and gain a broad understanding of related aspects. The composition of the spatial quality elements of art fashion retail represents the customers' perception, experience, and behavior. Varied experiences include being close to a product, close to space, feeling at home, getting imaginative with settings, and uniting and strengthening social relationships. Then customers gain a comfortable atmosphere, so the existence of retail can be resilient in the latest era of retail business.
Learning processes in architecture have always been a complex and difficult research field; the specific qualities of architectural education from childhood to adulthood are far from to be really known. We will present some studies, some coming from works with children in primary school and some from the university level in the school of architecture in Barcelona. We will analyze with some examples how the dialogical dimensions of the knowledge of architects can be developed, underdeveloped and even destroyed in education. Some conclusions will intend to uncover how to bridge the gap between practice and theory in architectural education, and then we can immediately understand that this gap has been produced by the wrong assumption that learning and design architectural processes can develop out of their social and cultural-geographic circumstances, in an abstract and apolitical place, where the relationships between experience and reflection can never exist.
