A good project begins with deep knowledge
The BIOMA method combines professional rigour and biophilic design in a legible process. It does not impose a style. It creates the conditions for decisions that respond to people, place, budget and objectives.
At its centre is the Perceptual Design Atlas, a tool that gathers preferences, memories, aesthetic references, relationships with nature and sensory perceptions. These are read with surveys, constraints and preliminary assessments.
What the Atlas reads
- Nature and wellbeing: desired relationships with light, planting, water and landscape.
- Sensory memory: places, materials, sounds and atmospheres that shaped ways of living.
- Aesthetics and material: tactile, chromatic and perceptual qualities.
- Relationship with space: orientation, privacy, openness, protection and use.
- Emotion and symbols: personal and cultural meanings that make a place recognisable.
Why a method matters
A structured process makes choices visible and allows the client to participate with greater awareness. The output may include analysis, perceptual maps, visualisations, material sheets, drawings and reports, depending on the commission.
“The project grows with the client: clear in its decisions, sensitive in its experience and open to verification in its results.”
