Harmony's Biophilic Design Guide
Biophilia is the innate human tendency to interact with and be closely associated to nature and other forms of life within the natural world. This is something that lives within everyone but has been neglected as the man-made world has grown and is no longer dependent on direct contact with nature. Biophilic Design is a unique type of design that aims to integrate the natural environment with the built environment through direct and indirect experience with nature. Harmony's Biophilic Design Guide is a research based guide to create a beautiful natural environment within your home. It shares easy to advanced tips and tricks on Biophilic Design elements as well as information and the benefits of what it does for you once it's a part of your daily life.
DIRECT EXPOSUREElements of Biophilic Design that can be incorporated into a home and are considered a direct experience with nature include exposure to air, light, plants, water, and animals. Direct experience with nature is classified as something that is physically existing simultaneously within nature and interior space as well as any living natural being.

INDIRECT EXPOSUREElements of Biophilic Design that can be incorporated into a home and are considered an indirect experience with nature include exposure to images, sounds, natural materials/colors, naturalistic shapes/forms, simulating light/air. An indirect experience with nature is anything that doesn't physically exist within nature but is derived from or inspired by some aspect of a natural environment.
