This paper offers a critical analysis of biophilic design and how it might be used to make workplaces healthier. Biophilic design, which has its roots in Edward O. Wilson's biophilia concept, incorporates natural aspects into the built environment to improve human health, well-being, and productivity. The study delves into the core ideas of biophilic design, such as the significance of naturalistic spatial arrangements and direct and indirect encounters with the natural world. It assesses the physiological and psychological advantages of biophilic design, including lowered stress levels, better memory, and better physical health. The use of biophilic design in the workplace is also covered in this study, with a focus on natural materials, indoor plants, natural light, and water elements. Studies showcasing biophilic design in contemporary workplaces show the benefits for worker productivity and well-being. The analysis also points out obstacles to using biophilic concepts, such as expense, upkeep, and possible change resistance. This study seeks to give a thorough understanding of how biophilic design can be used to produce healthier, more productive work environments by critically evaluating the state of the field and practical applications. In order to improve the human-nature connection in the workplace, the article ends with suggestions for incorporating biophilic features into office design. These emphasise the need of interdisciplinary teamwork and creative problem-solving.
