Biophilic Design in Urban Interior

  • Unique Paper ID: 180153
  • PageNo: 548-557
  • Abstract:
  • Urban environments are typically free of natural elements, which results in elevated levels of stress and poor well-being among residents. Biophilic design attempts to bring nature into interior spaces, thus promoting health and well-being. This thesis presents the guiding principles of biophilic design, and its psychological, physiological, and social benefits, and its use in urban interiors. Examining model projects, such as The Green School in Bangalore, Amity University in Noida, and Infosys SBD 1 in Pune, the study attempts to offer practical guidelines for architects and designers. By examining these cases and gathering data through interviews and questionnaires, the study shows that biophilic design can offer healthier and more productive environments. This practice makes up for the lack that exists between urban residents and nature, and offers a sustainable solution to enhancing the quality of life in high-density urban settings.
