Abstract
High density and levels in Surabaya can support poor quality of life related to health in the community. Two factors can reduce levels and support a better quality of life in individuals who are in a relationship with nature (biophilia) and other humans (social life). Shopping Center is a commercial building to accommodate shopping activities and people's life style in Surabaya, which is a community center for purchasing and facilitating socio-economic and recreational activities. The location of this shopping center is located in a strategic area on the Middle East Ring Road Surabaya (MERR). This region has a high enough strategic value where the appearance and structure of buildings in this region must have higher social and economic values, requiring the appearance and design of an order that has current values. The appearance and layout of the building will affect the user's atmosphere, both physically and psychologically. With the theme Integrating with Nature it is expected to create a space design that is owned by nature and blend with the potential of the site, and approve Biophilic Design will create a mall space that has a balance between humans and nature. By agreeing to this, the Shopping Center can accommodate spaces that will reduce user stress and can increase satisfaction and not improve the health of the user's community.

Summary
Surabaya is a metropolitan city, as the capital of East Java, which acts as a business center with economic, financial and government activities. Every day urban communities must face limited space, economic pressures, traffic congestion, and exposure to air pollution that has the potential to trigger mental disorders [11]. The design approach with biophilic methods is expected to reduce stress, improve cognitive function and creativity, improve the welfare of the built environment user and speed healing; because the urban population continues to increase, these environmental qualities will become increasingly important. Loss of productivity due to unplanned built environment will lead to stress-related illnesses, so designs that connect us back to nature -design biophilic - very important to provide opportunities for living and working in healthy places and spaces with less stress and better overall health and well-being
