The purpose of this study is to investigate if there is a physiological and psychological stress response to the visual movement and auditory speed of waterscapes. Biophilic research suggests that the presence of water can reduce stress, reduce blood pressure, and increase circulation. Participants were either exposed to a slow-moving or fast-moving waterscape for 20 minutes. Pre- and post-anxiety were measured using the State Trait Anxiety Scale in an online Qualtrics survey (118 participants) and through a salivary cortisol biomarker (in which 26 participants also partook). The overall results demonstrate that the utilization of digital blue space was effective in reducing stress. There was no significant difference between a lake or waterfall environment in both salivary cortisol and state-trait anxiety measures. However, it is suggested that the slow and fast-moving waterscapes may be beneficial in different settings. Design recommendations are made regarding potential biophilic design in healthcare facilities.
