INTUITIVE AND SCIENTIFIC BENEFITS
Bringing nature inside positively impacts your overall health and improves your quality of life. Benefits are both intuitive and scientific. People, from urban-dwellers to countrymen, value more “a room with a view” when it comes to vacation destinations, real estates or offices. Researchers in numerous fields including biology, psychology, medicine, education, and design-related fields, have studied the effects of nature contact in wellbeing and repeatedly reported only positive effects. The results across these studies and disciplines show that nature contact is positively associated with mental and physical health. (Largo-Wight, 2013)
