But its application is now on at top of its existence for very first time. It involves implementation of natural elements to improve the work flow, life style and productivity of human's day to day life. If we talk about its function and implementation in library we can easily see it working and having a very positive impact on the lives of users and public in general. It will create a balance between a working life and beauty & relaxing of a natural environment. In this abstract, we will explore the concept of blending a library's architecture with nature to create a whole different experience of learning and leisure. "Biophilic design is the idea that human possess an innate connection to nature". Main elements of Biophilic designs are Air, Organic elements, Natural light, soft lights, neutral tones and vegetation. Such environment will offer not just learning and studying but it will inspire people to new experiences and ideas. The interior is very accurately designed to bring communities together through space planning, ambiance and material selections. The idea is to have a free-flowing interior, huge spaces, huge walkways. Big windows are given in order to reduce the use of artificial light which is sustainable too. Cross ventilation and cooling systems ensure that air circulates properly giving an experience of being outdoors, green plants and vegetation inside helps enhancing the air quality. Talking about materials, it’s very clear that any interior theme has its specific kind of material. When talking about Biophilic theme we will have naturally existing materials like Wood, stone and clay, they are to evoke warmth. These materials are not just for functional and environmental purpose but rather for their soothing experiences. Other things like Earthy tones and organic furniture, texture and shapes enhance the experience inside the library even more, giving it a natural and aesthetically pleasing look and design. The library's layout is designed to help a variety of user needs. I have implemented quite areas for reading and study, they are positioned near windows to give out a look of outside landscape that will make the experience of reading even better, this also helps user in concentrating on whatever the work he is doing. There are communal spaces also like Community Lounge, Conference Rooms and even Atrium designed at the heart of layout to facilitate collaboration. Sustainability is one of huge requirements in today's design so I have implemented that too, since my whole idea is based on organic interior. The materials, the furniture everything is environment friendly. The wood is not just sustainable but it will help in noise cancellation too. More use of natural light than artificial lights will save cost and help environment too. In summary, the whole concept offers a transformative and sustainable experience. By adding sustainable and natural materials, library also becomes a place of emotional and intellectual well-being of human beings in addition to being a place of learning.enThesis
