The aim of the study is an influential trend in architecture and design called biophilia, which contributed to the formation of the style of a new type of biophilic design. The phenomenon called biophilia can be traced in the development of human civilization, from antiquity to the present day. However, it was only in the twentieth century that it became scientifically understood and formalized. Only in our days has biophilia become a conscious, purposeful and organized practical activity of man. It is in our days that "biophilic design" was born, which organically and logically fits into the so-called "green movement" and the world policy of sustainable development. The historiography of the topic presents authors who introduced the concepts of biophilia and biophilic design and the corresponding terms into scientific and practical circulation. Historical examples of early biophilic design are given. The reasons for the activation of biophilic design in the modern world and its development within the framework of the "green movement" are explained. The practice of biophilic design, its benefits for a person on a physical and emotional level are described. Using individual examples from contemporary residential and public interiors, urban environments and, on an even larger scale, entire cities, it is shown that this new specific type of design is a very relevant trend at the present time. As a result, it is concluded that, given the development of the modern urban environment and the deepening global climate, environmental and energy problems, biophilic design will become increasingly relevant in the future.
