Thomas D Albright and Sergei Gepshtein of the Salk Institute of Biological Studies in La Jolla, and Eduardo Macagno of the University of California in San Diego, review several complementary experimental approaches developed in different branches of visual neuroscience, helping to understand how humans capture and analyse information about the built environment. The authors propose how these approaches can be used in support of evidence‐based architectural and urban design.
