Abstract EN
Urbanization had separated man from nature.
Human beings spend a large amount
of time indoors; whether they are at home or at work.
The potential for sedentary
indoor life increases.
Workplace can be considered as stressful environment.
Many
stressors are there such as; timed tasks, KPIs, workloads, competition between
colleagues all affect employees‟ welfare and hence, their productivity.
Basophilic,
the man–nature bond- offers a mean to help mitigate the employees‟ stress.
It needs
a plan to be applied in new and existing workplaces.
Many researchers have attempted in the past to complete a well rounded study of
the theory of biophilia in the built environment.
These studies lack an evidence
based results and need connections with architecture design principles.
This paper
proposes a Biophilic Design Criteria for Productivity (BDCP) in workspaces
through enhancing Occupants‟ connection with nature and thus offering
productive environments.
