Biophilic Design is based on research that identifies specific design patterns found in nature that have measurable, positive impacts on human health and well-being. Incorporating aspects of Biophilic Design into your home’s interior design will create a space that not only looks great, but feels right. Natural Analouges is one category of Biophilic Design that is explored in this article.
A few years ago I was hired by a retail furniture store to help them “rebrand” themselves for the Marin and Sonoma markets. Subsequently working privately with clients I was surprised to learn that in their eyes, the best (and usually only) options for buying furniture were retail stores.
Based on our love of nature, Biophilic Design provides a new framework for interior designers and architects, in which to create spaces where people are healthier, more satisfied and more productive when designing your home. It addresses how environments affect how well we think and perform, how we feel, and how our physical bodies respond. This is one of the tools we at Indigo Interiors, Inc. and Stacey Lapuk Interiors make use of, to ensure that your house becomes your dream home.
This article (3rd in a series) is about creating the space, the right home environment in your life from where you can make things right again and move forward most joyfully and productively after your divorce. As with your finances, your car, and your health, for excellence in design you call on a professional. Design is not about buying furniture and getting the biggest discount. Creating your personal, unique home environment – your 3-dimensional painting in which you get to live – is about making the right decisions and purchases within a proper context. You’re marrying your functional requirements to your architecture, and all of that to your own energy, tastes and style.
This article (2nd in a series) is about creating the space, the right home environment in your life after your divorce. You may have left a large house, never bought a towel, rarely cooked a dinner and have no clue what to buy, or even where to buy furniture that will hold up to use and is not over-priced. You work hard and simply don’t have the energy, desire, time or resources to furnish your new space (or empty old space), but you want the job done well, and you have the means to have it done right.

You begin to wonder if the term “pure design” is really more the name of a theory than the design concept of an environment someone would actually want to live in…
I’ve recently become interested in learning about Biophilic design, how our vital connection to nature can be carried into the design of our homes. Far more impactful than bringing a plant indoors or installing a wall of windows, understanding and implementing Biophilia in our work can vastly improve the lives of our clients. I hope you become as fascinated with this field of science as it collaborates with art and design, as I am!
