Abstract

 The current modern lifestyle increases separation from nature. It negatively
affects human health, productivity, and well-being. The world is presently at a
pivotal stage with this universal epidemic to recognize the relationship value
between the built environment, nature, and man. Therefore, the research adopted
the biophilic approach in design to bridge this gap, restore this relationship, and
treat the harmful isolation effects of the coronavirus. Hence, the concept and role
of biophilia in healing, increasing productivity, and reviving the built environment,
were investigated. An urban and another architectural project, which adopted the
biophilia design besides its latest measurements of influencing users in the
classifications of projects and its reliance on the three sustainable bio-design levels,
were presented and analyzed. The most significant features of environments that
embrace activities were collected to evaluate and enhance them within any
environment. This approach has categories and patterns and is measured and
assessed by three rating systems. Accordingly, a checklist was established as a
designer's guideline to accomplish the biophilic approach. Furthermore, a
formulated progressive evaluation model was to execute this checklist, proceed,
and sequence across its nine objectives and three levels for attaining this approach,
thus connecting man with the natural environment.
