Episode Title: Designing Workplaces for Human Flourishing – The Science & Soul of Space Guest: Sonja Duric – Director, StudioBE | Co-Founder, The Working BrainCurious how design can actually help people feel safer, calmer, and more supported? Meet Sonja Duric In This Episode:In this episode, Seton sits down with Sonja Duric, Director of StudioBE, to explore how design can deeply influence human wellbeing from workplaces to schools to trauma-informed spaces.Sonja shares her journey from London’s design scene to leading a research-driven studio in Melbourne, and how her curiosity led to The Working Brain — a groundbreaking study on sensory profiling and workplace design for neurodiverse and neurotypical people alike. The conversation expands into universal design, sensory comfort, the evolution of schools, unconscious bias in space, and StudioBE’s mission to create environments that truly support the most vulnerable from children giving evidence in court to people recovering from trauma.We dive into:• Sonja’s Story & Creative Foundations• Cultural Differences in Design• Building a Practice Based on Creativity & Care• The Working Brain: Sensory & Neurodiversity Research• Designing Trauma-Informed Spaces• Schools, Pedagogy & Future Generations• The Evolution of Work & Sensory-Based Working• StudioBE’s Purpose & Social Impact Connect and Follow Sonja DuricLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/sonja-duric-3a14a238Website: https://studiobe.com.auTakeaways:• Design is not cosmetic — it’s behavioural.Space shapes how people feel, think, focus, and interact.• Universal design isn’t for the minority — it benefits everyone.• 60% of people have heightened sensory needs.Designing for neurodiversity automatically improves environments for the majority.• Sensory choice = psychological safety.People thrive when they can choose quiet, active, or recalibration zones.• Trauma-informed design saves lives.Sonja’s work in court and justice settings demonstrates how design can protect and empower people experiencing violence.• Kids and future generations need sensory-aware spaces in schools, not just architectural templates.• Designers have the power to create healthier futures, not just beautiful spaces.Chapters:00:00 – Welcome & introduction00:34 – Sonja’s story & early design career03:00 – London vs Australia: cultural differences in design06:00 – Building teams, culture & moving between practices09:50 – StudioBE’s values and evolution16:20 – Why sensory design matters18:00 – The Working Brain research21:00 – Neurodiversity, sensory profiles & universal design24:00 – Sensory-based working: quiet, active & transition zones28:00 – Why workspace design impacts wellbeing32:00 – Schools, children, pedagogy & future spaces37:00 – Trauma-informed design & court projects42:00 – StudioBE’s social impact focus44:00 – Recommended books & resources48:00 – Closing reflectionsSound Bites / Quotes: “60% of us have a sensory profile outside the standard range and most workplaces aren’t designed for us.” “Creativity and care should sit at the centre of every design practice.” “The environment around us affects our senses more than we realise.”Referenced in This Episode:Book• Living Sensationally: Understanding Your Senses — Dr Winnie Dunnhttps://www.amazon.com/Living-Sensationally-Understanding-Your-Senses/dp/184310915XResearch & Frameworks• The Working Brain – StudioBE Research Initiativehttps://www.studiobe.com.au/the-working-brain• Neurodiversity Hub (Enabling Spaces Section)https://www.neurodiversityhub.orgLET’S BE Connected📸 https://www.facebook.com/beinspiredcommunity/📱https://www.linkedin.com/company/beinspiredpodcast📸https://www.instagram.com/beconnected_podcast/🎧 https://open.spotify.com/show/5DbuoR8Ztq3sGYa5rrKzq7🔗https://www.youtube.com/@BEInspiredPodcast🌍My website - https://be-connected.co/
