# Omaima Hafid Architecture

> Omaima Hafid Architecture is a neuroarchitectural studio designing healthcare, residential, and wellness spaces. The practice translates research from neuroscience — circadian biology, acoustic stress, biophilic recognition, and spatial cognition — into built environments that measurably reduce cortisol and support recovery, focus, and emotional regulation.

Founded by Omaima Hafid, the studio brings three complementary credentials to every project: a neuroarchitecture certificate, a decade of healthcare design experience, and a life-coaching diploma used to guide a structured client-discovery process. Projects have been delivered in Morocco, France, the UAE, and Canada. Outputs are calibrated against pre- and post-occupancy measurements — lighting curves, decibel maps, patient outcomes — published in the practice's research Journal.
