I was at the first Biophilic Design Conference, hosted by the Journal of Biophilic Design, last week, an excellent conference and a question frequently
raised by both the speakers and the delegates was “isn’t biophilic design just
good design?”. I would say yes in general but, as I discussed with Chris
Moriarty and Ian Ellison of Audiem, for
biophilic design to stand alone there must be examples of biophilic design that
is poor design and cases of good design that is not biophilic design. I believe
such scenarios exist.
