Nikita Sheth
Architect, neuro-designer · Founder, Mu.S.Ex. · Lead Contributor · Bachelor of Architecture, Mumbai University
I design homes that make you healthier, improve your lifestyle and feel just right for you.
Nikita has been drawn to psychology since she was young, and she kept that curiosity alive while she studied architecture. By her second year she could see how closely the two are linked. Her Bachelor of Architecture dissertation took three years: a proposal for a research centre for “rehabilitation of the human mind, using architecture as the only medium, through an interaction between the audience and the environment.”
Nikita is an independent researcher exploring environmental and architectural psychology: theorising, analysing and experimenting across the two fields.
Founder of Mu.S.Ex.
Nikita founded Musing Spatial Experiences (Mu.S.Ex.), a think tank where architecture meets psychology, with three strands: research, design and pedagogy. She leads Project E, a long-term study of how the built environment shapes the mind.
Founder of Zuiora
Zuiora is homes with empathy: homes designed to make you healthier, with an AI design companion, Lucy, that helps people choose light, colour, layout and texture for how they actually live.
