Designing Better cities with Biophilic Design by, Ms. Silvia Ceria. DforDesign Biophilic design is a bridge between design, nature and wellbeing. It all begins with the realization that the spaces we live and work in have a huge impact on how we feel. Biophilic design addresses this point by drawing inspiration from the natural world to create spaces that actively support our health and wellbeing. THE ORIGIN OF BIOPHILIC DESIGN Humans have relied on nature to survive since the beginning of times. And human connection with the natural world used to be clearly perceived in the past. With time, people have started developing a human environment made of interiors, buildings and cities that strayed from nature more and more as time went by. Today, our living spaces are often the furthest opposite of nature. And we tend to see nature as something very far from our day-to-day lives – even more when living in cities. In other words, we've largely lost the sense of being part of something bigger.
