Imagine stepping out of a room and feeling a sense of calm as if you have entered a lush green garden. That’s the magic of biophilic design interiors which connects, humans to nature. In this modern urbanized world where we spend a lot of time inside or indoors, these are the designs that can push architecture further to collaborate with nature and bring nature to our indoor spaces which will not only improve the sense of that space but also help us to build a better indoor environment for human well being.
In our current world, we spend a lot of time indoors, In a small box Keeping a small plant inside our spaces, but is this the best option for us? We say no!!! We can involve the concept of biophilic designs now in our indoor spaces to not only make our spaces comfortable and more productive but also to improve our mental health and well-being.
The concept of Biophilic interior design isn’t new to the world. In our good olden days when our ancestors used to build their homes and cities with nature and peace relying on nature for sustainable living.
The term “Biophilia” was started by the biologist E.O. Wilson in the 1980s, describing the connection with nature, which aims to improve living and working environment with nature. This idea has influenced a wide range of fields like architecture and psychology.
There are a lot of principles of biophilic interior design and the basic or first principle of biophilic design is to use natural light. How you will increase natural light in an indoor space is a very crucial aspect of biophilic design. it can involve larger windows and indoor courtyards and you can even involve the light well concept.
These are the essence of the idea when you involve outdoor lighting in indoor or indirect outdoor lighting in an indoor it not only improves mental health but also tunes in your body with the natural clock.
