Architecture and Human Behaviour “Welcome back to The ArchiTalk with Suma.
Architecture has a deep influence on human behaviour. The way a space is designed affects how we move, think, and interact. Open layouts encourage social connection, while quiet corners support focus and calm. Natural light improves mood and energy, while poor lighting can create stress or fatigue. Even ceiling height and room proportion change how people feel tall ceilings inspire creativity, while low ceilings feel more intimate. Good architecture understands human psychology and designs spaces that support positive behaviour. When a building works well, people feel better without even noticing why.”
