YEARNING TO BREATHE

Welcome to the "Yearning to Breathe 2025" design competition. This competition invites innovative minds to reimagine the urban home by embracing the principles of biophilic design. Biophilia emphasizes the human connection with nature, integrating natural elements, materials, and patterns into the built environment. Your challenge is to design a residential space that harmoniously integrates biophilic principles, providing a serene, restorative living experience within the complexities of an urban context.

The primary objective is to craft an urban home that bridges the gap between urban living and nature, enhancing the residents’ physical and mental well-being while meeting functional and aesthetic needs.
