STUDY OF THE USE OF BIOPHILIA IN HOSPITAL ENVIRONMENTS IN BELEM – PA

Abstract

A hospital environment that deals with human health and works around the clock needs an efficient building that not only follows constructive norms, but is humanized in such a way that it can positively impact patients, and mainly,
employees and health professionals, taking into account their time longer stay in the building. Thinking about this impact, this article brings a study of the application of biophilia, which we will talk about in detail later, as a principle
of improvement between the relationship between natural and built environment, considering internal environments such as decompression room, doctor's office,  patient's apartment , infirmary and circulation at the Adventist Hospital in Belém do Pará. The proposed investigation is of a qualitative character, aiming to find out how much Biophilia resources can contribute to the humanization of important areas of the building, mainly closed areas of uninterrupted use, helping to reduce the normal stress of buildings like this, and thus providing greater comfort, productivity and well being.
