The word “green” elicits many definitions and responses. From nature itself to environmentally friendly consumer items and building methods, the word has been ubiquitously slapped onto a multitude of products and services currently on the market. The “green” movement in construction particularly has a multitude of implications. For some, green architecture is a black and white definition, set by LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) standards. Others seek aesthetic integration with the environment as a determining factor. A new movement related to green architecture—biophilic design—has recently gained much momentum within the building community. The leading experts in the biophilic design field hold that “we should bring as much of nature as we can into our everyday environments so as to experience it first-hand; second, we need to shape our built environment to incorporate those same geometrical qualities found in nature” (1). While the green movement has often focused on the means, biophilic design tends toward emphasizing the end results, establishing natural-based habitats for humans to live and work. Rather than merely erecting buildings, architects who utilize the tenets of biophilic design create spaces in which humans can truly fulfill their potential. Biophilic design incorporates elements derived from nature in order to maximize human functioning and health.
