And as we seek to reconnect with nature and improve our wellbeing, this trend is transforming homes and offices alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"3 tips to achieve Biophilic interior design?\u2728 #interiordesign #interior #biophilicdesign\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Da911OLNnHo?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.climadoor.co.uk\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is Biophilic Design?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Biophilic design involves incorporating elements of nature into architecture and interior design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Humans are naturally wired to feel a connection with nature (for <a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/why-do-we-love-the-great-outdoors-new-research-shows-part-of-the-answer-is-in-our-genes-175995\">some of us<\/a> it\u2019s already woven into our DNA). The word that describes this innate connection is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.planteriagroup.com\/blog\/biophilia-what-is-it-and-why-is-it-important\/\">biophilia<\/a> which means a love of life and living things. Biophilic design refers to the process of creating harmony between our homes and the natural world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The more recent biophilic design trend comes from an increased desire to nurture this connection as an antidote to the turbulent times we\u2019re living in. The concept of getting back to nature or \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thinkwithgoogle.com\/intl\/en-gb\/consumer-insights\/consumer-trends\/covid-slow-living-trend\/\">slow living<\/a>\u2019 has been described as one of the fastest growing consumer trends.

This is important because numerous studies show nature is vital for boosting our overall wellness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The Woodland Trust says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.woodlandtrust.org.uk\/trees-woods-and-wildlife\/british-trees\/health-and-wellbeing\/\">green spaces<\/a> are essential to maintaining good health. They cite improved recovery time from injuries and a reduction in stress levels as just a couple of reasons why we should spend time outdoors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">But it isn\u2019t all about trees. Scientists believe \u2018blue spaces\u2019 are important too. Studies show looking at the sea or open sky supports our \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.faena.com\/aleph\/why-watching-the-sea-and-the-sky-triggers-mental-health\">visual hygiene<\/a>\u2019 which helps us to feel relaxed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">It doesn\u2019t stop there. According to mental health charity <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mind.org.uk\/information-support\/tips-for-everyday-living\/nature-and-mental-health\/how-nature-benefits-mental-health\/\">Mind<\/a> the benefits of spending time in nature include an improved mood, an increase in confidence and a greater feeling of connection to our local communities.

By incorporating natural elements (plants, natural light, organic materials) into built environments, biophilic design taps into our evolutionary roots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">This connection with nature has been shown to reduce stress, improve mood, boost creativity, and enhance overall wellbeing. It stimulates our senses, promotes relaxation and creates a more harmonious and restorative atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">In turn, this ultimately leads to a more positive and productive experience within a space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Wellness <\/strong><\/td><td>Studies have shown that exposure to nature can reduce stress, improve mood and boost productivity.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Air quality<\/strong><\/td><td>Plants help purify the air by absorbing toxins and releasing oxygen.

This then provides more opportunities to enjoy the benefits of connecting with nature on a daily basis &#8211; no matter the size or style of our homes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Biophilic design could be as simple as using natural materials (stone, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climadoor.co.uk\/internal-doors\/single-leaf-internal-doors\/oak-internal-doors\">oak<\/a>, rattan, cotton) or choosing colours inspired by flowers, plants and animals. Other biophilic <a href=\"https:\/\/shepleybulfinch.com\/evolving-our-connection-with-nature-six-biophilic-design-applications\/\">design principles<\/a> include organic shapes, calming patterns and use of open space.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">By embracing biophilic design, we can create spaces that are not only beautiful but also promote health, wellbeing and productivity. As we move further into the future, it&#8217;s clear biophilic design will continue to play a significant role in shaping our built environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"What is Biophilic Interior Design?

After all, you don\u2019t need a large outdoor space or spectacular coastal views to let the natural world in. Easy biophilic design ideas include: starting a small vegetable patch on your patio, curating a collection of houseplants or simply opening your windows to enjoy the morning breeze.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The best biophilic design examples are the simplest, but it\u2019s important to choose the right products. Doors are the building blocks to good biophilic design as they inform the layout of your home. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climadoor.co.uk\/sliding-doors\">sliding doors<\/a> provide an opportunity to enjoy the wildlife in your garden while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climadoor.co.uk\/internal-doors\/single-leaf-internal-doors\/glazed-internal-doors\">glazed internal doors<\/a> allow natural daylight to flood every room.
