In the middle of the evolving architectural industry, we observe a transformative trend reforming the landscape of premium living, biophilic design. Based on the biophilia hypothesis by biologist Edward O. Wilson, this design philosophy seeks to reconnect us with the natural world by incorporating elements of nature into our built environments. This global trend is making its way to India. The renowned developers are approving biophilic designs to add even more value for their discerning homebuyers.

The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the importance of green spaces and the need for environments that promote well-being. As we grappled with lockdowns and restrictions, the value of easy access to nature became abundantly clear. Biophilic design, emphasising incorporating natural elements, gained traction as a means of healing and rejuvenation in challenging times.
Premium developments worldwide are undergoing a notable transformation, inspired by nature and guided by biophilic design principles. From sprawling green walls to rooftop gardens and Indigenous art installations, these developments redefine premium living by prioritising residents’ well-being and fostering a deeper connection to nature. In India, this trend is gaining momentum as reputed and innovative developers recognise the allure of biophilic design for their clientele.

The benefits of biophilic design extend beyond aesthetics. According to recent global research, communities with abundant greenery experience fewer cases of chronic diseases, resulting in significant healthcare cost savings. A community of 100,000 people with a high-ranking vegetation index is estimated to have 4,900 fewer cases of chronic disease than a low-ranking community, saving $13,250,000 in healthcare costs. Street trees add approximately $1.35 billion to a city’s real estate value, significantly increasing property tax revenue each year. The financial return on investment in biophilic design is clear, with multiple positive impacts that can be quantified and measured.Biophilic design is a potent antidote, significantly reducing overall stress levels and improving individuals’ ability to manage stress recovery. By creating environments that promote relaxation and rejuvenation, biophilic premium developments offer a sanctuary from the pressures of modern life.
As we navigate the challenges of the 21st century, the allure of biophilic design continues to grow. It enhances the occupant’s well-being, mitigates stress, and fosters a deeper connection to nature. In embracing biophilic design, developers are elevating the aesthetics of their projects to contribute to a greener, healthier future for residents and communities.
