Nuria Muñoz Arce is the founder of Habitarmonia, a consultancy, academy, and ecosystem advancing biophilic and regenerative design across the built environment. With 15 years leading successful creative ventures and a multidisciplinary background spanning business, marketing, and interior architecture, Nuria specializes in translating neuroscience and environmental psychology into design strategies that deliver measurable ROI. Through Habitarmonia Academy, she has trained hundreds of professionals worldwide to implement evidence-based biophilic design, helping developers understand how wellness amenities directly impact property valuations, tenant retention, and rental premiums. Her work bridges the gap between scientific research (showing 8-15% productivity increases, 50% faster recovery rates, and significant stress reduction in biophilic environments) and practical implementation that justifies premium pricing. As co-founder of HEAL (Human Environment Architectural Laboratory) and co-organizer of the Mind-Body-Space Global Symposium, Nuria works at the intersection of design, neuroscience, and real estate economics. She advises developers on how wellness-centered design, from circadian lighting to biophilic patterns, creates competitive advantages in increasingly health-conscious markets. An internationally recognized speaker on neuroarchitecture and sustainable urbanism, Nuria brings data-driven insights on how wellness amenities translate to premium returns—making her uniquely positioned to help PropTech innovators understand the business case for human-centered design.
