DESIGN OF RENTAL OFFICE BUILDINGS WITH BIOPHILIC ARCHITECTURE CONCEPT IN JAKARTA

Abstrak

In the modern era, rapidly developing and sophisticated technology has made human activities easier, but also influences behavioral patterns that distance humans from nature. It is important to strengthen the relationship between humans and nature through Biophilic Architecture, especially in office buildings. Office buildings, with limited green open space and poor air circulation quality, are relevant for the application of this concept. Spending 90% of daily time indoors has an impact on human psychological health. This study examines the design of office buildings with a Biophilic Architecture approach to support employee health and comfort. Expected benefits include increased productivity, creativity, and physical and mental well-being of employees. This design is also expected to be an example for other office buildings and maintain environmental balance through sustainability and energy savings. The focus of the study includes elements that influence human behavior such as natural lighting, vegetation, and sensory elements that affect mood and concentration levels. This study aims to design an office building in West Jakarta with a Biophilic approach that is maximal, supports health, and is comfortable for occupants
