Proposal of Human-Sensored Architecture Framework by Introducing Mixed Reality

Abstract: Remote work has increased the need to understand how indoor spatial design affects occupants’ cognitive performance and physiological states. This study proposes a Human-sensored Architecture framework integrating Mixed Reality (HoloLens 2) for real-time spatial manipulation and EEG (Emotiv EPOC+) for physiological measurement. Following a network analysis of 124 publications, experiments with 30 participants revealed that red walls enhanced short-term executive function through stress-induced arousal, whereas preferred, low-stress settings improved long-term memory and productivity. These findings demonstrate the value of human-centered spatial design tailored to specific cognitive tasks and provide a foundation for personalized, adaptive architecture.
