Nature Indoors: A New Way to Embrace Biophilic Design
In a fast-paced world, reconnecting with nature has never been more important. The biophilic design trend, which creates environments that blur the boundaries between the indoors and outdoors, is a way to make humans feel closer to nature.
In a home, embracing biophilic design can lead to a more serene and healthful living environment. For those looking for biophilic design in office spaces, the benefits extend beyond aesthetics. Studies have shown that incorporating natural elements in the workplace can lead to increased creativity, productivity, and overall employee well-being.
One of the key principles of biophilic design is to maximize natural light exposure by incorporating large windows, skylights, and glass doors. This not only reduces reliance on artificial lighting but also allows for better views of the surrounding greenery, fostering a sense of connection to the outdoors.
Consider also opting for furniture made from sustainable materials like bamboo or rattan or adding elements like cork bulletin boards or wool rugs to enhance the biophilic atmosphere.
Another way to adhere to this trend is by integrating natural materials such as wood, stone, and plants. Wood accents can add warmth and texture to a space, while stone elements provide a sense of grounding.
Plants play a crucial role in biophilic design as they not only improve air quality but also evoke a sense of tranquility and vitality. Consider incorporating a variety of plant species throughout your home, from hanging plants and potted herbs to vertical gardens and living walls. One particularly innovative and trendy way to bring nature indoors is using RIVA Moss.

RIVA Moss also makes an ideal choice for those looking to introduce a touch of greenery into their homes without the hassle of regular care or natural light exposure. Utilizing a specialized preservation process that involves removing water and infusing glycerin, it keeps soft and pliable. When preserved this way, it maintains its look and texture for 10 years with no maintenance required. It doesn’t need any natural light or irrigation. The only requirement is keeping the relative humidity between 35-70%, like a normal interior environment.
