Sound isn’t just something we hear, it’s something that shapes our physiology, influencing our thoughts, feelings, actions… and even our capacity to heal

In his second appearance on The Aligned Interior, renowned sound expert and author Julian Treasure returns to explore the profound role sound plays in shaping our environments, our bodies, and our lives.

We explore how sound, vibration, and frequency shape our well-being, from the rooms we design to the cities and bodies we inhabit. Together, we examine how sound affects us socially, our learning, focus, nervous system regulation, healing and so much more.

This expansive dialogue bridges the history of sound, interior design, vibrational medicine, plant communication and planetary frequencies. Reminding us that sound connects us all, and that it’s a powerful tool for facilitating harmony in our bodies, lives, and environments.

🌀 Julian Treasure is a leading voice in sound, communication, and acoustic design. He’s the author of Sound Business and How to Be Heard, and his newest book, Sound Affects: How Sound Shapes Our Lives, Our Well-Being, and Our Planet. With TED Talks reaching over 150 million views, Julian’s work continues to shape how we design for, and with, the ears.

How do our spaces help us balance, not just emotionally, but neurologically? In Part 2 of my conversation with world-renowned neuroaesthetics expert Dr. Oshin Vartanian, we explore how interior design can support emotional processing, facilitate creativity, and foster well-being and meaning.

Together, we unpack how subtle design choices, from natural elements to multisensory design, can engage the brain in ways that often operate beneath conscious awareness. We touch on topics like exposure therapy through design, brain homeostasis, and why the environments we choose might be more connected to our nervous system than we realize.

Whether you’re a designer, therapist, creative, or simply curious about how the brain responds to interior space, this episode offers a grounded and eye-opening look into the intersection of neuroaesthetics and environmental psychology.

🧠 Dr. Vartanian is a leading voice in the neuroaesthetics field. He is a Professor at the University of Toronto and President of the International Association of Empirical Aesthetics (IAEA). His research bridges psychology, neuroscience, and aesthetics, and has shaped how we understand the power of space on human cognition and emotion.

🎧 Tap play to discover:

• How natural materials and multisensory design quietly shape your emotional and creative states
• The surprising ways your brain seeks balance through the environments you choose
• How thoughtfully designed spaces can support emotional healing and nervous system regulation
• Why personalization matters more than design trends in creating meaningful interiors
• The latest tools researchers use to study how design impacts brain function over time

Why do some spaces instantly feel calming, focused, or inspiring, while others leave us anxious, uneasy, or drained? The answer lies in the science of neuroaesthetics and the often subconscious influence of space: how our brains respond to beauty, form, and function in the environments we inhabit, often without us even realizing it.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Oshin Vartanian, one of the world’s foremost experts in neuroaesthetics and the psychology of architecture and design. We explore how your primal brain processes, and instinctively reacts to, elements like curves, ceiling height, natural materials, sacred spaces, and more.

Dr. Vartanian is a Professor at the University of Toronto, where he explores the cognitive and neural foundations of creativity and aesthetics. He received his PhD in Experimental Psychology from the University of Maine and currently serves as President of the International Association of Empirical Aesthetics (IAEA). He is the former editor of Empirical Studies of the Arts and Psychology of Aesthetics, Creativity, and the Arts, and has co-edited several landmark volumes on the neuroscience of aesthetics, creativity, and decision making. All linked below in the Resources section.

🧠 Dr. Vartanian’s research is foundational to understanding how interior environments influence the way we think, feel, and act. Shaping our behavior, supporting health, well-being and evoking emotional and awe-related responses often associated with sacred or contemplative spaces.
