Abstract

Well-being is an ephemeral condition in relation to the complex system of interconnected components changing from culture to culture and person to person together with time and space. Therefore, it is very important to investigate the intersections of architecture and humanities in order to understand how design can contribute to the way we build up well-being. The specific contribution of this chapter is the introduction of the well-being framework for interiors and its application to design process. The framework proposal, consisting of contextual, functional, psychological, social, ergonomic, aesthetic, and sensory requirements as basic design criteria, aims to support both theoretical and practical activities regarding well-being in all living environments. Since interior space is one of the most important determinants of our everyday experiences, its role in well-being as a conscious construct needs to be an important concern of spatial design.
