The science brief that lets a building earn its health premium.
There’s a real premium in health-conscious design*. Cocoon Mode de Vie is the partner that captures it.
*Based on Minkow & Fuerst (2025), University of Cambridge.
A 2025 University of Cambridge study documents a measurable rent premium for health-certified buildings. The premium is real — but only the buildings designed against a science brief, from the first floorplan, actually capture it.
Three phases, from floorplan to resident.
Design-Stage Science Brief
Built directly from a project's floorplans, applying the Cerevra Blueprint™ before ground is broken. The science is set into the architecture at the stage where it costs least to act on.
Cerevra Blueprint
A completed evaluation of the finished building against that same Cerevra Blueprint™ — measuring what was specified against what was delivered, and what residents will actually feel.
Resident Consultations
Optional Sensory Design Consultations offered directly to residents once the building is complete — extending the methodology that shaped the building down to the individual units people actually live in.
The same methodology, applied where it matters most.
Neuroarchitecture shouldn’t be a luxury category. CMDV works with mission-driven and affordable housing providers to bring sensory design into homes where the impact on wellbeing is greatest.
