Abstract

There is a unique relationship between nature, health, and architecture. I believe that architecture if designed to do so may aid to elevate people’s physical and mental health. Similarly, nature has been proven to reduce an individual’s stress, restore attention, and allow the body to heal at an increased rate than in its absence. Architecture if designed intentionally may foster this relationship that people have with nature (Wilson,1984, Biophilia)Thus, becoming an aspect that may aid in the healing process. Architecture that is designed to heal.
