    "abstract": "Airport terminal buildings are a reflection of modern technology, as well as representation of the distinctive identity of each country and contemporary interior design trends. This paper aims to examine the impact biophilic design has on passenger perception. The research is focused on the implementation of main design principles related to biophilia, namely: natural light and materials, green vegetation, water features. Biophilic design is proven to be not only an aesthetic part of contemporary interiors, but a useful tool for navigation, bringing a sense of place and creating fascinating atmospheres. A research on global tendencies is conducted to support the affirmation that biophilic design has a positive impact on passenger experience and comfort and has the potential to enhance passenger well-being. The paper suggests strategic ways to implement these design principles in airport terminals, in order to reduce stress levels in passengers and improve their overall experience in the airport terminal building.",
