\n

In a rapidly changing world dominated by technology and urban lifestyles, we are beginning to see a clear trend in interior design: a return to nature. Biophilic design is not just an aesthetic direction, but a philosophy that responds to the human need to reconnect with the natural world. At WERASO, we see this principle as the core of modern furniture and interior design \u2013 we combine functionality, craftsmanship and nature into a harmonious whole.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n

\n What is biophilic design? <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

The term “biophilia” was introduced in the 1980s by American biologist Edward O. Wilson. He used it to refer to the natural human need to be in contact with nature. Biophilic design is a direct transfer of this idea to architecture and interiors. Its goal is to create spaces that improve human well-being, health, and productivity thanks to elements inspired by nature.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n

\n Why is it so popular today? <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Stress, digital burnout and lack of contact with nature have made the interior a place where we seek peace and balance. During the pandemic years, many of us found ourselves locked within four walls and realized how much we miss nature. This shift has become a driving force behind interest in biophilic design around the world. At WERASO<\/strong>, we naturally followed this trend \u2013 for years we have been creating furniture and interiors that respond to the need for both mental and physical comfort.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n

\n Main principles of biophilic design <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Biophilic design is not just about flower pots in the living room. It is a comprehensive approach that includes:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Natural materials<\/strong><\/p>\n

The use of wood, stone or natural textiles (such as wool, pure linen or cotton) creates a feeling of warmth and authenticity. WERASO uses only high-quality natural materials in the production of furniture that are also sustainable.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Greenery and live plants<\/strong><\/p>\n

From regular plants to green walls and indoor vertical gardens. Plants improve air quality, reduce stress and boost mood. When designing interiors, we often work with architects to make greenery a natural part of the space.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Natural light and shading<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maximizing the access of daylight through large windows, skylights or open layouts. In combination with thoughtful shading (e.g. wooden blinds) creates a dynamic light rhythm. WERASO interiors support openness and connection with the outside environment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Organic shapes and patterns<\/strong><\/p>\n

The design draws inspiration from natural curves, asymmetrical shapes and textures that mimic nature (e.g. tree rings, waves, leaves). In our designs, we deliberately avoid strict geometric lines and look for a natural rhythm.<\/strong> The connection with nature is important.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Water as an element<\/strong><\/p>\n

Water in the form of a fountain, aquarium or water wall not only soothes, but also humidifies the air. For clients who desire maximum comfort, we can design an interior where water will be a natural part of the atmosphere.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n

\n Biophilic design in the world <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Northern Europe<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Scandinavia, where design is traditionally simple and functional, a biophilic approach fits in naturally. The emphasis is on daylight, light wood, and open space.<\/p>\n

Japan<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Japanese principle of “wabi-sabi” – beauty in imperfection and naturalness – is a historical precursor to biophilic design. Tatami, bamboo, bonsai and Zen gardens are common features of interiors.<\/p>\n

Australia<\/strong><\/p>\n

Modern residences in Australia connect the indoors with the outdoors with retractable glass walls and green terraces, with an emphasis on sustainability and renewable materials.<\/p>\n

USA<\/strong><\/p>\n

Large coworking spaces, such as Amazon’s offices in Seattle (The Spheres), are iconic examples of biophilic design – glass domes filled with plants from around the world.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n

\n Benefits of biophilic design <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
    \n
  • Health and well-being: <\/strong>Contact with nature reduces stress, blood pressure and improves concentration.<\/li>\n
  • Productivity: <\/strong>In the workplace, it can increase performance and reduce absenteeism.<\/li>\n
  • Aesthetic value: <\/strong>Natural design does not age as quickly as synthetic trends.<\/li>\n
  • Sustainability: <\/strong>Supports an ecological approach to interior design.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \n How to apply biophilic design at home or in the office? <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n
      \n
    • Choose natural materials<\/strong> for custom-made furniture (e.g. oak, walnut, ash). In our WERASO workshop<\/strong>, we work with each piece of wood to bring out its natural beauty.<\/li>\n
    • Add plants<\/strong> \u2013 even one well-placed monstera can change the atmosphere.<\/li>\n
    • Replace harsh LED lights with warmer lighting<\/strong>, ideally with regulation \u2013 the Hafele<\/strong> brand is an ideal choice<\/li>\n
    • Use natural colors<\/strong> \u2013 green, brown, sand, terracotta.<\/li>\n
    • If possible, integrate a water feature<\/strong> or at least the sound of water through audio.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

       <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

      \n

      \n The future of design is biophilic <\/h2>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n
      \n

      Biophilic design is not a fashion fad. It is a response to a deep need to slow down, breathe, and surround ourselves with something that is natural to us. Whether it is a home, an office, or a public space, nature is finding its way back into our lives. And we should allow it to do so.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n
