Archi-Therapy Course

What if architecture could go beyond function and beauty and help us feel better? Archi-Therapy is a groundbreaking approach that explores how the spaces we design can become powerful tools for emotional, physical, and spiritual healing. Led by visionary architect Moshe Katz, this course invites you to reimagine architecture as a form of care—a medium that speaks to the soul, relieves stress, fosters connection, and creates calm in a noisy, overwhelming world. This course teaches you how light, sound, movement, color, nature, texture, and technology can be intentionally used as therapeutic design elements. From healing loneliness through design to supporting children’s curiosity and mental well-being, every lesson opens a new perspective on what architecture can do, not just what it should look like. You’ll explore real case studies, reflect on emotional needs in different spaces, and discover how small, thoughtful design decisions can lead to big emotional shifts. You’ll walk away with ideas and a new sense of purpose in your work. This course is for architects, designers, artists, and anyone who believes that space can heal. This course gives you a unique, future-forward skill set that blends emotional intelligence with spatial creativity, positioning you as a leader in a growing field. Lessons: 1. Course Overview 2.
