The purpose of this paper is to examine what contribution biophilia (effect) can make to preventing aging public space brought about by social and economic exclusion of middle-aged and older people, and underestimation of their functional abilities. This paper first attempted to explore such concept as spatial limitation and expandability, age malleability, and chronological age, which are deemed as conditions to cause or reverse aging public space. Then I examined how biophilia (effect) can help effectively cope with aging public space and encourage middle-aged and older adults to stay active and productive. Above all, it was found that relationships spanning age groups play an important role in grappling with prejudice and stereotyping about age and promoting active and meaningful aging. This finding pointed to ethical aging supported and pursued by biophilia (effect) as opposed to aging in terms of chronological age. Therefore this study showed that biophilia (effect) can have a meaningful effect on preventing aging public space as biophilic individuals are inclined to actively engage in ethical aging.
