Beauty has always spoken to us—but today, its voice is louder, clearer, and more essential than ever. As the language of design evolves, we are beginning to understand that beauty is not just a visual luxury but a biological necessity. Hardwired into our DNA, aesthetic experiences shape how we feel, think, and heal. From the calming repetition of patterns to the nurturing presence of natural elements, design has the power to transform our spaces into sanctuaries of wellness. In today’s episode, we’re joined by Mike Peterson to explore how neuroaesthetics and biophilia are reshaping design to support human health and well-being. Mike is a true pioneer at the intersection of design, science, and wellness.
