Articles about Biophilia: ("love of life, love of nature" – using design strategies to allow tenants to feel more connected to the outdoors)

These articles were sent to us to use as a resource by our biophilic consultant Judith Heerwagen. She also added: "The best overall source of information about Biophilia is the 2008 book: Biophilic Design: The Theory, Science and Practice of Bringing Buildings to Life. NY: Wiley, SR Kellert, JHeerwagen and MMador, eds."
