Description

The objective of this paper is the creation of a school to help the children of Kutikatoor live a more accessible and simpler life: students in the concentration range from 4 to 16 (Play School - - Grade 10). The proposed location, which is around 18.3 acres in size, lies in Kuttikattoor, Kozhikode, and Kerala. The land is surrounded by greenery and situated in a mountainous area. The study will concentrate on how biophilic architecture and design may enhance students' lives. This paper will discuss how biophilic design may benefit schools by creating circulation and spatial connections between the built and natural environments. The biophilic design can have quantifiable beneficial effects on student performance and well-being by including natural components. It is necessary to thoroughly analyze the biophilic design in relation to the learning environment for students, using ideas of ecological, visual, and spatial integration. By fostering a soothing atmosphere, lowering anxiety, and boosting physical fitness, biophilic design, which incorporates natural light, greenery, and nature vistas, can increase attention, decrease stress, stimulate creativity, and improve academic accomplishment. The school's design will be implemented by incorporating the architectural design into the contoured regions and using the idea of biophilic design patterns. Depending on the climate and the site's orientation, the design will be implemented such that locally accessible materials are employed in a hilly area. This detailed analysis of the case study and literature review for the school design will help us to design and conceptualize as an architect. Further, the study will also emphasize biophilic design which is aligned with the built environment in school design. The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
