Fine Art Gallery in Medan with Biophilic Design Approach

Abstract

The development of fine arts in the city of Medan shows its potential through several art exhibitions that have been held. However, its progress is still lagging behind other cities, one of which is due to the lack of art galleries as spaces for artists to exhibit their works. The city of Medan needs a private art gallery that can accommodate potential artists and attract public interest to appreciate art. Biophilic design was chosen as the approach to designing this gallery because it can present therapeutic benefits, such as reducing stress, promoting relaxation, and providing positive emotions. This approach integrates natural elements into the space to create an aesthetic experience and comfort for visitors while supporting fine arts development in Medan.
