Biophilic interior design: inspiration from nature
Therefore, the desire to integrate natural forms, natural light, and natural materials into living spaces can not only enhance the appearance of a room but also positively impact its owner's mood. Here are a few techniques to help you recreate biophilic interior design in your home.
Creating a green corner
This technique involves the physical presence of nature in the interior. Various plants in the space will refresh the air and enhance the mood. If space is limited, consider installing a vertical garden or placing potted plants on shelves, windowsills, or walls.
Natural lighting
Natural lighting is an important element of biophilic design, so maximizing it while avoiding artificial light sources whenever possible is essential. Using lightweight curtains instead of heavy drapes, placing a mirror on a wall perpendicular to the window, or installing skylights can be excellent ways to increase access to natural light.
Natural forms and patterns
Paying attention to forms and patterns is essential when selecting furniture and decor. For example, pieces that mimic natural shapes (such as leaves, flowers, or shells) or items with gentle curves can serve as exciting accents in a biophilic interior.
You can also incorporate items featuring images of leaves, flowers, and plants into the decor. Additionally, textures that evoke natural materials (like stone, wood, or sand) can enhance the connection to nature.
Choosing a color palette
The color palette in a biophilic interior plays an important role, as it significantly affects the mood and overall perception of the space. Natural colors such as green, brown, and blue are often used to create associations with natural elements. These can serve as the primary shades in a biophilic interior. At the same time, brighter colors (orange, yellow, coral) can be used as accents in textiles or decor items, which can enliven the space and add dynamism.
Use of natural materials
When creating a biophilic interior, attention must be paid to wood, stone, linen, cotton, and silk materials. These fit harmoniously into the overall concept and add a sense of warmth and coziness to the space.
Adding water elements
Contemplating water, hearing its sounds, and having the opportunity to touch it positively influences our emotional state. If the space does not allow for a fountain or pool, you can incorporate an aquarium or small decorative water features into the interior.
