ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Hello! This is Episode 433. This is Way #33 of the 44 Ways to Create Your Sustainable Home series, and we’re continuing through Section Seven: A Sustainable Site: Landscape Design.
Last episode, Way #32, we looked at the outdoor room as a sustainability asset. This episode talks about a bigger concept that you may or may not be familiar with, but can dramatically impact how you feel in your home, and the way it supports your health and wellness overall.
Way #33 is: Learn About Biophilic Design.

The connection with gardens, with light, with natural elements … all of that is scientifically proven to improve our well-being, our sense of relaxation and lower our anxiety levels overall.
Design that capitalises on this is known as Biophilic Design.
This doesn’t have to be grand statements. There are many examples of projects that have shown that something as simple as a lovingly curated collection of indoor plants can make a massive difference to the feel and function of a space in someone’s home. That can be achieved anywhere, for very little budget.
Equally, it can be about your garden and outdoor design generally. It can also relate to material selection, and the use of patterns and other choices.
Biophilic design can be a worthwhile inclusion in your overall approach when creating your sustainable home.
