Designing for Neurodiversity

At Self Agency, we believe in designing spaces that embrace neurodiversity. Our Co-Founder and Director, Devon Lowndes, emphasises the importance of supporting everyone’s needs and goals. Through our recent collaboration with Phoenix Wharf and the University of Bristol, we explored how the built environment can better accommodate neurodivergent individuals. By prioritising factors like fascination, coherence, and homeyness, we create spaces that foster inclusivity and promote authentic living. If you’re interested in designing a space that celebrates diversity and supports every mind to thrive, we’d love to hear from you.
