Colin Ellard, a neuroscientist and psychologist, has conducted research on the impact of built environment on human mood. Using VR reality to simulate different environments he takes reactive data like heart rate, brain waves etc.
His findings suggest that design, scale, and surroundings playing crucial roles. Ellard's work indicates that the built environment can evoke a range of emotions positive and negative. Overall, Ellard's research highlights the complex interplay between urban design, architecture, and human emotions in the context of tall structures.
