Nature in the space

Image
In the previous blog we discussed about the feelings that are experienced by a human being while doing adventures and today we will get into more detail of how one can experience all these feelings in their daily life with the help of biophilic design. Biophilic design patterns can be used as a tool for improving health and well-being in the built environment. The built environment refers to the man made structures like homes, offices, hospitals, hotels and so on.  www.sdg-india.in Biophilic design can be organized into three categories: ·          Nature in the space. ·          Nature analogues. ·          Nature of the space. These three categories provide an overall idea for understanding the biophilic design and how we can incorporate nature’s strategies into the built environment.

STEPPING INTO NATURE

      Since many centuries, representations of animals and plants have been used for decorative and symbolic ornamentation. Before representation, cultures around the world have long brought nature into homes and public spaces. The consistency of natural themes in historic structures and places suggests that biophilic design is not a new phenomenon. Due to urbanization, we have lost the touch of nature.      Biophilic design can reduce stress, enhance creativity and clarity of thought, improve our well-being and accelerate healing. To get in a perfect tune with nature, there are various aspects of nature that most impact our satisfaction with the built environment. Biophilic design is essential for providing people opportunities to live and work in healthy places and spaces with less stress and greater overall health and well-being. Biophilia is to bring out human being’s natural connection with nature.       Why do people love adventures like trekking, hiking, camp

HUMAN, A PART OF NATURE

            Human life has become a life in a nutshell, surrounded by four walls with a small window that may not even be useful with this escalating amount of construction around. Why is it that with development in all the sectors we are still unable to develop as a human being? With increasing amounts of money in our pockets we are still unable to fight diseases. Why is it that People in 21 st century are having more and more mental health issues compared to the lives earlier? And most important issue to think is what’s next?           We have completely lost the idea of human relationship with nature and are growing apart from it day after day. We need to find the bridge between the modern built environments with natural world as we are a part of nature . We will never be truly healthy, satisfied or fulfilled if we live apart and alienated from the environment from which we evolved. We need to bring back life into our lives!

Design is a very delicate subject as we can go wrong in so many ways. It may seem simple but its not because at the same time we have to keep so many things in our mind. The design process starts with a concept where our mind has to decide which road to take. Conceptual design gives us a direction which is very important as it doesn’t make our mind wander in the sky. It keeps us on a single straight road where the road will have so many obstacles. The design principles will flow automatically like pebbles kept on the same road for us to pick it up in middle and at the end of the road, the design will be ready.  But on the same road there are so many things you don’t have to pick up for  you  to put in the  design. www.sdg-india.in In this blog we will see some dos and don’ts of design. DO have a direction and do not wander: Taking up a concept is important otherwise our design will be a bunch of incomplete ideas in every direction. For example : Whenever you

We as humans are the most complex creatures. But did nature made us like this? Or did we make ourselves complex? But when you think clearly it is actually so easy to be simple by getting rid of a lot of things that makes us complex. It is basically removing the unnecessary. If we talk about interiors, especially residential interiors, home is a place where we need maximum comfort. It should have a calm and soothing environment. It is a fact that anything and everything that surrounds you has a psychological impact so it is essential that the designs, forms, patterns, colors, textures etc should not have a negative impact on the person who is going to experience that space every day. However, there are times where people want something extraordinary, in such a case we can always keep the interior simple but also add some details to make it stand out from the rest. Here are a few quick tips to how we can achieve it in a bedroom space:    ·  Th

Can someone define design? It is funny how 10 different people will give 10 different answers to the very same question of what is design. Everyone will have a different perspective about design. www.sdg-india.in             According to us, Design is the way of expressing ideas in a form of any art. All the answers would be different but the primary base would be expression of what’s inside one’s mind. So a successful design will have all it’s principles such as Balance, Rhythm, Repetition, Unity and Harmony, Emphasis and so on. Keeping these principles in mind, a piece of work can be termed as design. Design is definitely something more than just making things pretty. BALANCE Every design contains a few things such as colors ,patterns, straight lines, curves, lights, furniture placement, decoration part such as vases, artworks, paintings,and so on. These elements will have a certain visual weight. Some elements will be heavier than the other according to
