ANFA’s hands-on Bootcamp Sept. 22-24, 2022 in La Jolla, California

ANFA is offering an intensive, 3-day, hands-on Bootcamp -- Design, Space, Motion -- that is specifically tailored for Architecture and Design practitioners and researchers who wish to utilize knowledge from the fields of Neuro- and Cognitive Science to inform and enrich their design practice.
The focus of the Bootcamp is how to improve human-centered design by incorporating information about how the brain processes: (1) dimensionality and proportion, (2) motion and navigation, and (3) embodied/enactive/embedded experiences.
It will take place on the UC San Diego campus. You can download our flyer with information on accommodations and general topics.
In the coming months we will hold several online workshops, some free to ANFA Members. In 2023, we plan to hold our regular biennial conference to celebrate ANFA's 20th anniversary! 🎉
