Neurodivergence and Archtecture - Chapter Three - Disability studies, neurodivergence and architecture

It also considers wider intersectionalities to draw out some of the underlying principles of a disability studies approach, and various ethical challenges to everyday negative and ableist attitudes to disability. I then explore connections with architecture—both as a disciplinary practice, and as built space—and offer examples of projects that challenge deficit models of disability and neurodivergence. Finally, I explore projects and processes that aim for a future in which starting from neurodivergence enables alternative ways of thinking and doing architecture, and I outline how neuroscience, architecture and the intersections between then can benefit from disability studies, activism and creativity.
