WORK IN A HEALTHY SPACE
The quality of the space we inhabit, whether it is our home or our workspace, significantly affects how we feel in our daily lives and that obviously has an impact on our work..
Good lighting, Adequate air quality and not being under the effects of electromagnetic pollution make us more relaxed, let's be more productive, we feel good and ultimately live a better life.

AIR QUALITY
The air we breathe and that surrounds us significantly influences us.
LIGHTNING
Amount of light, application, intensity, flicker, key factors in health.
CAMPOS ELECTROMAGNETICOS
They are invisible to the eye but they are interfering with our body.
HABITAT PSYCHOLOGY
The layout of the space, the colors, and ways they affect our psyche.
SOUND
The amount of sound, the volume or even non-audible vibrations.
MEASURE AND IMPROVE
What is not measured cannot be improved. Now we can measure it.
AIR QUALITY
The air we breathe within our workspace is essential to feel healthy, stronger and more productive. There are many factors involved such as humidity, temperature, toxic, COVS. As always, our reference is nature and when we analyze the space to improve it we look for values similar to those we find in it..
In cities, the air outside is often more polluted than inside.. We must pay attention to ventilation and the decorative elements that we introduce into our interiors since they can provide us with toxins and other unnecessary components..
Parameters such as temperature can be adjusted, relative humidity, CO2, CO, toxics in the air such as formaldehyde, COVS, etc.
Imagine that you are without knowing it every day of your life 8 hours breathing polluted air that harms your well-being, your energy and your quality of life. Let's do something today.
The air inside buildings is 2 a 5 times more polluted than outside air.

ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS
This topic is complex but summarizing a little we can say that electromagnetic fields are invisible and surround us all the time, altering the normal functioning of the body.. When we are in nature we are normally only under the earth's magnetic field to which we are also accustomed., but in cities and urban centers other artificial fields influence (and there are more and more). These are those created by high voltage cables, the wifi, el Bluetooth, electrical cables, the generators, the microwave, etc.
In your workplace you should not be exposed to high levels of these fields., since spending many hours in an altered area can cause illnesses, chronic fatigue, discomfort, headache, etc.
QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF
SOUND
There is a sound level range in which we can sleep and have a restful sleep., another range for a living room or an area where people chat and another range for concentration places such as work spaces, bookstores, etc.
High volume items such as a telephone, a conversation, music, or more linear sounds like the sound of traffic, ventilation, etc. can significantly alter our state of concentration, get in a bad mood, get tired, alter us, get stressed, etc. Even prolonged exposure to a sound source can make us sick.
By taking care of the acoustic quality of a space, you are taking care of yourself and your loved ones..
THE IMPORTANCE OF
LIGHTNING
Like almost no other medium, light influences about the spirit and about the psyche. Improved visual conditions promote visual performance and increase concentration in the workplace.
In general, a pleasant lighting throughout the office increases emotional quality and reinforces motivation. Beyond it, Adapting lighting to the time of day and time of year increases the level of well-being.
Luminance must be taken into account, avoid glare that can occur due to strong contrasts, the tone of the light so as not to alter the circadian cycle (I have an article about this if you don't know what it is.) and the flickering that is generated.
These parameters can be measured and improved so that our eyes and brain work comfortably, thus increasing the quality of work and our comfort..
HABITAT PSYCHOLOGY
WHAT YOU SEE
Have you realized that there are spaces that cause you stress?, others relax you, some stress you out and others invite you to stop or continue. This is called space psychology or psychogeography.. Places can be designed to invite you to feel a certain sensation. The distribution, the colors, the shapes, the proportions, etc. can be studied to promote your health and well-being. It is also known as neuroarchitecture or habitat psychology..
