Abstract
MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE : This research aims to improve the mental and physical health of users at the Job Centre in Tempelhof, Berlin through the Biophilic Design principles. The Job Centre has a negative reputation among society. Due to anxiety and tension inside the bureaucratic Job Centre, employees are overwhelmed and under pressure daily at their offices. On the other hand, the visitors of the Job Centre are already unmotivated due to the lack of chances in finding jobs. In light of this, the Biophilic Design approaches in the interiors of the Job Centre reflect its public image and bring relief and gratification to both parties. The research discusses the impact of the Biophilic Design on bureaucratic spaces such as the Job Centre in Tempelhof, Berlin. It also exposes the combination of redesign strategies in existing buildings through Biophilic principles. The study will evaluate the Biophilic elements and their psychological and biological influence on the users in public institutions of Berlin
