Biophilic design is the practice of introducing natural elements in the built environment, to enliven the interior and improve the well being of its occupants. In contrast to the sensory deprivation of modern offices and public structures; a biophilic space utilizes plant life, textured woods, calming colors, and natural lighting. Experiencing such an interior is a breath of fresh air, and encourages an emotional attachment to the space. Whether inspired by or made to foster natural elements, choose designs to satisfy the innate human Biophilia.
