Beauty, Neuroscience & Architecture

For centuries man has sought to express beauty in architecture & art. Today neuroscience is helping to determine how and why beauty plays such an important role in our lives. Donald H. Ruggles, architect, draws upon fifty plus years of experience in architecture to delve into the forces behind this transformative emotion. Founded on a series of lectures given over the past five years to enthusiastic audiences, his new book Beauty, Neuroscience & Architecture postulates that beauty can and does make a difference in our lives including improving important aspects of our health.  The evening will include a lecture, a slide show, and a short video.  Books will be available for purchase and there will be a book signing period at the conclusion of the event.

This event is hosted by an ICAA Chapter. Please check the Chapter website, or contact the Chapter directly, for the most up-to-date details including dates, times, and pricing.
