REDEVELOPING THE ‘REGIONAL SCIENCE CENTRE’ INTO A DYNAMIC ‘SCIENCE CITY’ AT DEHRADUN

Science city is a popular name for interactive science museums in India. These institutions are designed to promote science education and awareness among the public, especially students and young people.

The regional science centre in Dehradun is set to undergo a transforming redevelopment, evolving into a vibrant sciences city, aligning with the visionary proposal put forth by the Uttarakhand council of science and technology (UCOST).

HUMAN ATTRACTION TOWARDS NATURE BIOPHILIC ARCHITECTURE Biophilic design is an approach to architecture that seeks to connect building occupants more closely to nature.

Biophilic designed buildings incorporate things like natural lighting and ventilation, natural landscape features and other elements for creating a more productive and healthy built environment for people.
