ABSTRACT
For thousands of years, man lived majority of his life outside of walls and depended
on the natural environment to sustain life. In today’s culture, man spends about 80%
of his life indoors, blocking out the natural world. Also, we as individuals have more
demanded of each of us to meet expectations, and thereby stress or associated illness
is usually an outcome (Fiset, 2004). As a result, non-traditional alternatives are being
considered as healthful options. Research has also shown that human beings have an
innate and evolutionary based affinity for the natural environment.

CHAPTER
-2 LITERATURE STUDY
A resort is a place used for relaxation or recreation, attracting visitors for holidays or
vacations. Resorts are places, towns or sometimes commercial establishment operated
by a single company. Such a self-contained resort attempts to provide for most of a
vacationer's wants while remaining on the premises, such as food, drink, lodging,
sports, entertainment, and shopping (www.wikipedia.org). The modern tourist
associates the resort experience with relaxation, luxury, service and care and expects
to be pampered. These pleasures are enhanced by the opportunity to participate in a
wide variety of sports, recreation and entertainment and also escape from day to day
stresses. Traditionally, resorts have been places to make social contacts, attend social
occasions, and improve health and fitness.
The social pursuits continue, and many other interests have been added; golf and
theme parks especially have gained enormous popularity, while ski, beach and urban
amenities have also become favourites. The traditional social orientation has
expanded to include the exploitation of other cultures, with guests joining educational
lectures and tours (Huffadine, 1999)

Each person is a unique combination of these three principles or doshas, with different
proportions of each existing within us. These three basic Ayurvedic principles
combine to make ten unique mind-body types.
KAPHA
VATA
Kapha pertains to water and
Vata pertains to air and ether earth elements. Kapha is
elements. This energy is responsible for growth and
generally seen as the force, protection. The mucousal
which directs nerve impulses, lining of the stomach, and the
circulation, respiration, and cerebral-spinal fluid that
elimination. protects the brain and spinal
column are examples of
kapha.
PITTA
Pitta pertains to fire and water
elements. This dosha governs
metabolism, e.g., the
transformation of foods into
nutrients. Pitta is also
responsible for metabolism in
the organ and tissue systems.

2.7.1 WHY ?
•Pleasant weather: After the hot and humid summer, the pleasant weather conditions
during the monsoon period always bring softness to the body.
•Clean atmosphere: At the onset of monsoon, the thirst of soil gets quenched and the
dust pollution level nose dives.
•Thanks to the pleasant weather, the mind and body are completely calm and thereby
increases the energy levels of the body and responds well to the treatments and
therapies
The Ayurvedic science includes factors like herbal medicine , dietetics , body work ,
surgery , psychology and , spirituality . Ayurveda deals not merely with medical
science , but also with the social , ethical, intellectual & spiritual life of man . The
science of Ayurveda is based on sound principles of diagnosis which requires no
clinical or costly investigations which are beyond reach of the common and less
privileged person . Ayurvedic science has discovered that a person falls sick only
when there is an imbalance and disproportionate ratio in vata(air), kapha (Phelgm )
and Pitta (Bile) .

A popular treatment based on essential oils of therapeutic value, which will leave your
mind and body rejuvenated and bring renewal and balance to your lifestyle. Gentle
sweeping movements using the whole of the hand enables the essential oils to
penetrate the body, helping to bring about a state of calm and relaxation.
This type of massage helps to increase circulation, relaxation of the muscles and
relieves the body from stress and tension. If you are seeking a gentle and nurturing
treatment, an aromatherapy massage may be your ideal therapy. You are invited to
choose a massage to suit the needs of your body and mind.
Deep tissue massage focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissues and aims to
release the chronic patterns of tension in the body through slow strokes and deep
finger pressure on the contracted muscles. When muscles are stressed, they block
oxygen and nutrients, leading to inflammation that builds up toxins in the muscle
tissue. A deep tissue massage helps loosen muscle tissue, release toxins from muscles
and get blood and oxygen circulating properly.

6.6.1Design Scheme:
i. General Planning:
The whole resort was designed to radiate from one focal point. This makes
accessibility easy and quick. The longer stretch of the arrangement of the buildings is
in the north-south axis to limit exposure to solar axis. Layout and circulation routes
are clear, and ample storage spaces were provided. Consideration for noise, type of
activity, likely timing of activities and age groups when locating facilities were also
made.
ii. Circulation:
Conscious design efforts to separate pedestrian and vehicular traffic were made. The
parking lots are arranged on one wing as the building is approached. The traffic zone
was designed in such a way that it is segregated from the vehicular free zone. This
arrangement curbs traffic around the buildings and also reduce toxic pollution away
from the health facilities and lodging facilities as well

The whole facility was designed in such a way to manipulate and optimize the
entrance of natural light so as to facilitate mobility, curiosity, imagination and
exploration. The building is glazed using the insulating glass unit (double glazing) so
as to filter the ultraviolet rays that may enter the building. Stack and cross ventilation
methods are used in the building. These ventilation techniques have been found to be
effective in this type of building structure as they aid in freshening up of the indoor air
so as to prevent moisture build up
iv. Landscaping:
This is an important factor in the design of such a facility as it helps in creating scenic
and relaxation experiences. Trees and hedges are put in place to enhance the micro
climate and environmental features within the resort. The calming influence of plants
is very conducive by increasing a person’s ability to concentrate. Emphasis is placed
on ample provision of well landscaped environments to aid in relaxation and
complement activities of the resort. Stone paving were used for walkways to
emphasize the use of natural materials.

Collect Information
Once the problem is defined, architects will spend time gathering information to help
them understand the neighbourhood, the site, the users of the building, any existing
buildings. Typically this means taking photographs, sketching, and interviewing the
client. It's also valuable to collect information on the natural environment, so
architects may gather data on the path of the sun around the site, the direction of the
wind, the climate, as well as what types of plants are currently growing around the
site.
Brainstorm/Analyse
During this stage of the process, architects may begin sketching or making diagrams
to help them understand how all the data and information they've collected may
impact the design of the building. These early drawings - which may include bubble
diagrams,
for example, will help the architects document their ideas, because it's likely the
solution will change as they go along.
Develop Solutions
At this stage in the design process, architects will create drawings with specific
solutions to be shown to the client. Schematic drawings, as these are typically called,
help illustrate the big ideas and space requirements of the project. Schematic drawings
usually do not include dimensions or other construction-related notes.

Feedback
No solution is perfect the first time around, so it is critical that the architects continue
Improve
With feedback in hand, the architects will go back and continue to revise and improve
the final solution. Over the next several months, or even years, the architecture firm
will work with the client to refine the original design. Based on an analysis of cost vs.
needs, together the firm and the client will closely review the solutions and make
balanced decisions on which features will stay, which will be redesigned, and which
may be eliminated. Depending on the size of the project, other partners – such as
structural engineers, mechanical/plumbing engineers, acoustical engineers, lighting
designers, civil engineers, landscape architects, electrical engineers – are brought
into the process and hired for their expertise.
Programming Phase
Programming is the activity of determining the "program", or set
of needs that a building needs to fulfil.
During the design development phase of the architectural design process, the scheme
is refined into the final design. In previous phases, the focus has been on the project as

Planning Concept
The site concept is derived from the abstracted form of an open chamomile herb
flower. The flower has petals all over surrounding the core. The core of the flower
represents where the main buildings of the resort are while the petals represent
parking spaces and landscaped areas and at the base of the flower is the location of
chalets.

This research was built on the utilization of natural features to create healing
environments, the problem definition being that biophonic design attributes offer a
better connection between people and the natural environment. This draws its
background to the study of relevant literature. The introductory chapter discussed
briefly on the research topic, stated the problem that resulted to the research, outlined
the aim and objectives and also justified the research topic. The scope and
methodology of research that was employed was also discussed. Chapter two
discussed an overview of healing centres , classes and various types of healing centres
. The discussion was emphasized mostly on spas and health healing centres and
wellness centres with the various types of spas and how they were classified
according to their functions. The design and planning of health healing centres was
also discussed, briefly mentioning the trends and concepts of future spas, and also the
relationship between health-oriented activities and recreation. Chapter three began
with the concept of wellness and healing environments. Relevant literature on nature,
its features and its therapeutic features was then assessed. Biophonic design and those
attributes that can support and encourage restorative (healing) environments were also
assessed. These attributes include: dynamic natural lighting and ventilation,
curvilinear shapes and forms, sensory and direct interactions to nature, façade
greening and health benefits of plants and water. These attributes, from research, were
understood to help de-stress individuals for restoration and recovery.
Case studies were analysed in chapter five. Each of the case studies
were chosen based on purposive sampling using general variables recognized in spas
and health resorts and also analysed based on certain predetermined variables with
emphasis on the degree to which healing environments were considered in the design
and planning Selection of site and analysis of the chosen site for the proposed design
was done in chapter five. Attributes of the site were discussed as well as physical,
geological and climatic analysis Chapter six discussed the development of the site
brief as according to the intended scope of the work.
The concept of the proposed spa resort evolved from the general
perception of health resorts and with the biophonic design attributes that were
discussed in the literature reviews. The design was developed through an
understanding and analysis of the

CONTRIBUTION TO KNOWLEDGE
Having carried out this research, the contribution to knowledge cannot be overstated.
The establishment of the design goes in conformity with the natural environment. It
has been established that as individuals spend more time in naturally landscaped
environments, this helps in de-stressing and reducing the likelihoods of certain stress
related diseases. Therefore, through careful studies of the site and its features and how
it can be used in design to enhance restoration, this can be adhered to by designers to
improve and design health facilities and resorts that are highly functional,
aesthetically pleasing and comforting, structurally stable and healthy be it a hospital,
spa and fitness facility or any other related healthcare facility
