Abstract:
This research project aims to explore the impact of biophilic design on occupant well-being and productivity in architectural spaces. Biophilic design refers to the incorporation of natural elements and patterns into the built environment, with the goal of creating a stronger connection between humans and nature. The study will investigate the various aspects of biophilic design, including the use of natural materials, access to daylight and views, indoor plants, and the integration of nature-inspired patterns and forms. Through a combination of literature review, case studies, and occupant surveys, this research seeks to provide valuable insights into the potential benefits of biophilic design in enhancing occupant well-being and productivity.
