People with autism perceive everything as a whole. They do not distinguish a foreground and a background. Causing them to see way more details than we do. Often they are hypersensitive or hyposensitive to certain kinds of sensory input. Stimuli can be very intense, painfully intense. Or they (almost) can’t reach their system, producing a distorted image of the environment. Being afraid of incentives that might, or might not, come doesn’t facilitate the learning process. In order for autistic people to learn new things, the architect should design a space where they can feel relatively safe and comfortable.
