The Details…
Biophilic design is an approach to architecture and interior design that seeks to connect people more closely with nature. The term “biophilia” refers to the inherent human affinity for nature and living organisms. Biophilic design incorporates natural elements, materials, and processes into the built environment to create spaces that enhance human well-being and productivity.
Here are a few reasons why biophilic design has gained momentum in recent years:
Biophilic design promotes health, healing, and recovery.
People living close to open spaces report fewer health and social problems. The results are independent of rural or urban residences, level of education, and income.
Biophilic design improves workplace performance and decreases stress.
Offices that feature natural light, natural ventilation, and other environmental features foster improved performance, lower stress, and enhanced motivation.
Biophilic design improves cognitive function.
Connection with nature has been linked to improved cognitive function on tasks requiring concentration and memory.
