The Scientific Proof of Biophilic Design

David Trubridge with Professor Richard Taylor

Did you know that exposure to certain natural patterns & fractals can reduce stress by up to 60%? This week’s guest Professor Richard Taylor does! His research led to this discovery and many other scientific findings about the positive effects nature has on humans, along with new products that are designed to promote health and wellness.

Professor Taylor is an academic expert in chaos theory, fractals and the relationship between art & science. At the University of Oregon, he is a Professor of physics, psychology and art as well as the director of the Materials Science Institute. Richard’s research focuses on “bio-inspiration” in which artificial systems benefit from using nature’s patterns. He is also the leading expert on the artist Jackson Pollock.
