biohilic sounds at MAM COMPETENCE CENTER

In this competence center diverse biophilic design strategies contribute to health and wellbeing, ranging from dynamic lighting, natural materials, and science-based patterns to optimized acoustics as well as dynamic human-scale circulation. The modular carpet tiles, developed in collaboration with the team of Prof. Richard Taylor (Fractals Research and the University of Oregon), include science-informed, fractal patterns into the built environment as „nature’s restorative power could reduce mental fatigue and refresh the ability to concentrate, and in doing so prevent occupational burn-out“ as Rachel and Steven Kaplan conclude in their book „The Experience of Nature: A Psychological Perspective“.
