Abstract
The research explores the concept of biophilic architectural design, which is based
on the idea of biophilia, or the innate human affinity for nature. The history of the
integration of nature into architecture is discussed, in addition to clarifying the
difference between Biomimicry, Biophilic design, Organic design, Green Architecture
and Sustainable Architecture. Moreover, the levels, Dimensions, Elements and
Attributes of biophilic design are examined in detail. The research also analyzes several
examples of biophilic design from around the world, highlighting the different ways in
which nature can be incorporated into the built environment.
In addition, the research focuses on three case studies of architecture first in Egypt
to determine whether it follows biophilic design principles or not. And second is a
biophilic building in Singapore, and finally the third is a biophilic building in
Washington. So that a comparison between the three buildings could be made for
Explaining the different ways to apply biophilic design and reaching the weak points in
applying biophilic architectural design in Egypt. The analysis reveals that while the
building in Egypt incorporates some biophilic elements, it falls short in terms of
providing a truly immersive and restorative natural environment.
The analysis also reveals that differences in climatic regions lead to differences in
the way architectural design is applied to be compatible with these climatic differences.
Overall, the dissertation highlights the importance of biophilic design in creating
healthy and sustainable built environments which have the potential to improve people’s
physical and mental well-being and provides a framework for promoting biophilic
design practices in Egypt
