Using biophilic and naturalistic patterns in the design of therapeutic environments with the network analysis process

Natural elements can make the environment warm and pleasant and make the spirit fresher and the behavior friendlier. Among the effective factors in the treatment process are the buildings that are built and the environmental features that have an important effect on the health and recovery of patients as well as the performance of mental people and employees. The goal of designing treatment environments with natural patterns is to improve the quality of life and the treatment process of patients. These patterns can include natural scenery, natural lighting, open and green spaces, and natural colors. These elements not only increase the beauty of the environment, but also have positive effects on the mood and recovery of patients. The present research is practical in terms of its purpose and its method is analytical. Expert judgments for weighting were collected through a questionnaire and a study method, which consisted of 23 articles related to the topic and included criteria such as nature therapy, healing relationship with the physical environment, light, color, plants and green space. The findings of the research show that the use of appropriate colors, natural light and plants in the treatment environment is effective and also facilitates the improvement of the quality of the treatment services and the improvement of the physiological and psychological performance of the patients. Reduction of stress, better sleep, feeling of freshness and generally affecting the patient's behavior and emotions are some of the effects of these criteria.
