dc.description.abstractAUTHOR-SUPPLIED ABSTRACT: Abstract Humans have long aimed to improve their habitat and workplaces to increase their comfort and productivity. These advancements are built on technological progress that enhanced inhabitants' health and well-being but paid little attention to the more subtle form of Biophilic Design. With the increasing urbanization and the rise of poor working environments, the biggest issue is losing connection to green spaces and nature-related features, especially in workplaces. A radical change in the way we contextualize interior office spaces is imperative. Biophilic Design has numerous positive aspects and effects on various levels and thus can provide the answer to this urge; a solution. This research aims to understand and define the benefits of Biophilic Design incorporated in the Interior Office Spaces of Urban Environments. The thesis will be split into two parts, theoretical and practical, by applying the knowledge and studying different cases. This thesis aims to demonstrate how including Biophilic Design in different approaches in urban settings and workplaces can enhance employee well-being, creativity, and capacity. Keywords: habitat, workplaces, comfort, productivity, technological progress, biophilic design, urbanization, green spaces, nature-related features, employee well-being, creativity, capacity, interior office spaces, urban environmentsen
