Biophilia Academy
Brought to you by Inpro
More than a trend, the benefits of biophilic design remain much sought after in the world of architecture. While up to this point much of the biophilic design elements have focused on options like improved daylighting or exposed wood and natural stone, biophilia also includes the human element, specifically art. Lessons learned post-pandemic have put the occupant’s well-being, especially mental and emotional health, front and center when designing interior surfaces. Increasingly new projects and major renovations focus on how to transform traditional offices, health care facilities, schools, and retail spaces into a catalyst for a positive human experience. The Biophilia Academy explores the positive impacts that biophilic elements can have on the health and well-being of building occupants, potential green builder credits, and innovative carbon sequestration strategies through biomorphism and bio-utilization.
