In the world of interior design and landscaping, the concept of biophilic design is gaining increasing attention. Learn more about this principle and the significant role nature plays in our living and working environments in this blog, and explore our matching range to incorporate these ideas into your interior and office designs.
What is biophilic design?
Biophilic design is a design principle aimed at fostering a stronger connection between humans and nature. To enhance this connection, natural elements are integrated into people’s living and working spaces. This includes products that come directly from nature, such as trees, plants, and moss, as well as materials that evoke a sense of nature, like wood and stone.
Benefits of biophilic design
Biophilic design is applied in interiors for various reasons. Firstly, integrating nature into indoor spaces has significant aesthetic value. Abundant greenery is appealing, attractive, and decorative. Furthermore, it has been proven that being in a green, natural environment reduces stress and enhances feelings of happiness. Additionally, working in a green environment increases productivity.
