Biophilic Design for Schools & More
Advertisement
Research has demonstrated that biophilic elements, such as green roofs, walls, natural light, water features to name a few, can exert a direct and positive impact on human health and well being. This can translate into improved employee performance, more rapid patient recovery and even more satisfying guest stays at hotels.
Dr. Jana Soderlund
GRHC Launches New Course on Biophilic Design for Schools, Biophilic Design for Schools: Bringing In The Wilds, as part of its ongoing series to promote the use of biophilic design principles among design professionals. Education studies have revealed that schools with access to more natural design elements and systems convey a number of performance and morale benefits to the students housed within at a critical point in a child's development. In this course Dr. Jana Soderlund walks through a number of strategies for implementing and maintaining biophilic design elements into our schools, and explores the how and why of the impacts on students.
