BIOPHILIA
Nature in the Space
What is Biophilia?
Biophilic design is an approach to architecture and interior design that seeks to incorporate elements of nature into the built environment, recognizing the innate human connection and affinity for nature. It involves integrating natural materials, patterns, light, vegetation, and other elements that evoke a sense of nature, resulting in spaces that promote well-being, productivity, and a greater sense of harmony with the environment. By bringing nature indoors and creating a biophilic environment, this design philosophy aims to enhance human health, happiness, and overall quality of life.

Air Purification
Incorporating plants into your living spaces can reduce toxins in the air and contribute additional oxygen. Roughly 250 plants produce enough O2 for a single person.
Noise Reduction
Plants, soil, trapped air, and moisture in the soil are great acoustic insulators. Studies have shown that green walls can reduce ambient noise by up to 40 decibels, an important benefit to those who work or live close to noisy streets, highways or airports.
Wellness
Visual connection with nature can lower blood pressure and heart rate, improve mental engagement, attentiveness, and positively impact attitude. This is linked to lower incidence of depression, heart disease, and diabetes.
