Biophilia as the Main Design Question in Architectural Design Studio Teaching
The reflection of biophilia, a concept coming from the disciplines of psychology and philosophy, in architecture emphasizes the connection between a building and nature as the main input of architectural design. Various dimensions and design criteria have been defined under the main heading of biophilic architecture, with the objective of eliminating the gap between the natural and the built environment in today's modern cities. This study explored the approach of third year architecture students to biophilia embedded in the design studio program, rather than pursuing a formal, focused approach. The students' sensitivity to a building being a tool to connect nature and humans in urban settings and design reactions were assessed in the context of the major parameters mentioned in the literature.
