The Korea Tourism Organization has selected wellness tourist destinations in order to revitalize wellness tourism, and they have announced these selections in the 2021 Wellness Tourism Directory Book. Among the selected destinations, The highest number of spa spaces was found in hotel auxiliary facilities. Given that the spa space is recognized as a haven for those seeking a healthy lifestyle, it is imperative to consider a design that aligns with this notion. Concurrently, biophilic design theory is being employed as a means to craft spaces conducive to healthy living. Consequently, this study aims to outline the design direction for hotel spa spaces geared towards physical and mental rejuvenation, employing biophilic design theory within wellness tourist destinations. The methodology of the study unfolds as follows. Firstly, through literature research, the concepts and characteristics of hotel spa spaces and biophilic design were scrutinized. Subsequently, the biophilic design features of hotel spa spaces were delineated based on the findings of the literature research. Lastly, the design direction was proposed by analyzing selected case studies. It was noted that there is an absence of natural elements within hotel spa spaces. To address this deficiency, it is imperative to introduce opportunities for experiencing nature by incorporating additional elements such as plants and hydroponics. Moreover, the primary emphasis on functional elements has resulted in a lack of indirect natural elements. To address this issue, additional photos or artworks depicting natural scenery or vegetation should be strategically positioned to capture the attention of users. In terms of the experiential aspects of space and place, there were no elements that partially obstructed views within the communal areas. To foster a sense of psychological stability and personal rejuvenation, arrangements should be made to incorporate curtains, partitions, and plants, thereby creating a more intimate and secluded ambiance. |
