These principles will vary according to the type of user for whom the design is intended. In this research, these neuroarchitectural principles are identified in the nursing home Mis Abuelitos in Cochachinche, Huánuco. The home was designed and built with notions of nature and the Andean while emphasizing the occupants are the elderly. With this purpose, qualitative research was carried out using two sequential criteria, the first was to identify what these principles are and the second was to recognize the principles within the area. The principles that are assertively used for the elderly occupants were selected. The study observation was performed with observation and photographic sheets and was analyzed with ATLAS.ti processing software. It was obtained that the three neuroarchitectural principles are present in the nursing home which are 67% of the recommended characteristics for the elderly.
