Biophilic design is a principle for both architecture and interior design. The sole purpose is to design a space that connects people with nature. It is known that human beings need to incorporate elements of nature in their daily lives to maintain well-being, so by incorporating the natural world into homes and commercial spaces, this can have a positive impact on our health both physically and spiritually.

1. Natural Colours

Colour is a big element of the design, as the right colour palette will make the scheme feel truly authentic. Think about the colours that would be created naturally such as greens, blues and earthy tones. You can also select hues with earthy undertones such as reds and browns for an organic feel. The natural world is made of a wide spectrum of colour which gives you plenty of scope to allow for personal taste too.

2. Using Natural Materials

Incorporating natural materials in your space is key to this design principle. Wood, stone and organic fabrics can all be considered during the sampling process to bring your scheme together. Wallpaper is the perfect way to incorporate biophilia. You can use a natural wallpaper such as grasscloth or incorporate pattern with wallpaper designs inspired by nature. This could be greenery, flora and fauna, clouds or more modern designs featuring organic shapes such as the new Albany Oasis collection. Be sure to pop into your local Brewers to browse wallpaper books and order your free samples!

3. Incorporating Shapes Found In Nature

As we think about organic elements, using curves, waves and non-linear designs within a space will echo the natural world. Curved furniture is a big trend for 2025, using pieces with curves or soft corners, allowing the space to flow. This can be mirrored on the walls by painting organic shapes…you could even create your own mural!

Colours: Albany Taupe, Dewdrop, Woolsack, Fuchsia Bud, Capricorn and Crumpet.

4. Inviting Nature In

Finally, to complete the scheme, adding indoor plants, flowers and other organic elements will make the space feel more connected to nature. You can also consider the natural light within the space and even water features to enhance the design. Consider painting plant pots in the same colour as your walls so plant life seamlessly blends into the space.
