Long before urbanization, people lived by the land. They embraced each season and kept in stride with its unique rhythm. Knowing how to grow crops and survive in every condition was a way of life. Though today we live in various environments ranging from rural to metropolitan, there is always a yearning to retreat to nature. In fact, being in green spaces offers many health benefits.
That is why people who live in the city need biophilic design — an architectural concept that incorporates natural landscaping, lighting, and ventilation — to restore their total health continually. Biophilic design in architecture has been proven to offer health benefits as well as boost creativity and productivity.
Even intermittent exposure to green spaces is enough to offer significant benefits, and you don’t need a lot of green either — 12% is optimal, while 5% isn’t enough, and 20% may be too much. In collaboration with Mokekule, whose mission is to deliver clean air to everyone around the globe, we will dive deeper into how to create a restorative space with biophilic design in your home or office.
