The current study investigates different humane architectural approaches. It focuses on biophilia and biophilic design, in an attempt to create a conceptual framework to reflect the understanding of biophilia on architectural design. It aims to reach a set of essential geometric qualities -that are assumed to have restorative effect on humans and enrich their experience of the built environment. The study uses an experimental model to examine the physiological and psychological effect of the proposed geometric qualities on users
