This webinar will explore recent trends in remodeling and renovation projects that enhance the occupied space's biophilic design. Data strongly suggests that our aging population is unwilling to move due to high-interest rates, unstable markets, and limited inventory. Yet as this market ages in place, it also seeks ways to introduce the health benefits associated with biophilic design, including more light and fresh air in their living space. This perfect storm of equity-positive homeowners and innovative products and design options has energized the remodeling and renovation industry, creating opportunities for architects and designers to improve homeowners' health and welfare and expand the impact of well-designed living spaces for generations.
This webinar will look specifically at how including design elements that enhance light and views and introduce fresh air provides health benefits to occupants, increases their comfort and enjoyment of their homes, and is rapidly becoming an intrinsic part of the remodeling and renovation design challenges.
