Biophilia is trending!

If you're thinking of redesigning your residential or commercial space, applying biophilia might be the best decision you'll ever make.

Biophilia refers to the innate desire of humans to connect with nature and other living things. The term derives from the Greek for "life" and "love or affection," rendering it literally "love of life." This concept is central to biophilic design, which incorporates natural materials, patterns, and phenomena into the built environment to maintain a connection to nature.

Biophilia is more than a philosophy. It has been demonstrated that biophilic design benefits cognitive function, physical health, and psychological well-being.

Biophilia has become more of a present need. Plants improve employee mental health and productivity while purifying the air and reducing noise. Plants are often an afterthought in office design, usually considered after the office has been fitted out or refurbished. But it doesn't always to be that way. From living walls and partitions to floating baskets and rooftop gardens, they can be incorporated into your office interior design right away. There are so many options to choose from that will definitely suit your needs!

Integrating biophilic design principles into your offices, lounge areas, and other prominent gathering spaces, fosters a connection between humans and nature, while also promoting employee wellness and productivity. Given that the average person spends 90% of their time indoors, increasing biophilia in the built environment would have a substantial impact.
