I am delighted to share the recently published article on my research Nature-In carried out at The Royal Danish Academy Architecture Design Conservation "Bringing the outdoors in: architecture that nurtures our connection with nature" in Horizon Magazine* the EU research magazine!

The article, written by by science journalist Valérie Gillet, highlights how my individual research EU-funded project Nature-In explores the role of architecture in designing living spaces that harness the healing power of nature to improve the health and well-being of urban populations. "Del exterior al interior: la arquitectura que nutre nuestra conexión con la naturaleza" a version in Spanish is also available.
