Combining neuroarchitecture and biophilic design, Berta proposes the interior design of a holistic center intended to support cancer patients. Her project, supervised by faculty members Eugenia López Reus and Enzo Vignolo, transforms a traditional farmhouse in La Cerdanya into a humanized environment that reduces stress and promotes emotional wellbeing. Maggie’s. La Vinyola is structured around an aromatic garden courtyard and includes therapy rooms, a community kitchen, a lounge-library, and bedrooms conceived from sensory care. The entire proposal integrates natural light, organic materials, and a constant connection with nature.
