Abstract

Biophilia is often used in design because of its positive impact on mental and physical health for the users of the space. Bringing live plants into a space can improve the air quality. In addition to this it can help increase productivity which is ideal for a community space on a college campus where students need to focus and study. Studies have shown incorporating biophilia can improve productivity, creativity, key cognitive functions, overall well-being and encourage innovative thinking (Haiken, 2023) (Haiken, 2022).
