25.01.2022 bringing nature into interior design

25.01.2022 Interest from schools in implementing Biophilic design has risen. A Perth high school with low mental health and high crime is currently seeking funding for a biophilic makeover to help their students while creating a template for other schools.

10.01.2022 "The problem with offsets rather than integration...... Build nature in through biophilic design," says BCA Chair Dr Jana Soderlund in response to this uncomfortable article by Lisa Cox.

09.01.2022 Today Vic Park Urban Foresters and Town of Victoria Park met with Biophilic Cities Australia's Jana Soderland to talk about biophilic design and the benefits fr...om increasing connections with nature in our everyday lives. BiophiIic design "embraces the understanding that humans have an innate connection to the natural world. Scientific studies demonstrate that access to nature is a significant antidote to long-term chronic stress experienced by many urbanites. It also enhances cognitive performance and mood, and focuses humans on the larger world resulting in greater generosity and cooperation. In the context of the challenge of climate change, biophilic interventions contribute to mental, social and emotional health in addition to providing components of resilience."

06.01.2022 Cr Luana Lisandro for Victoria Park - Banksia Ward The Urban Forest Strategy is much more than planting trees: it includes returning nature to cities and the built form through biophilic design. Part of the implementation plan will see the Town of Victoria Park looking at incorporating nature back into our built form. Well done to the Vic Park Urban Foresters and the Town in starting this next chapter of our Urban Forest Strategy with Biophilic Cities Australia... .
