Psychological Impact Of The Spatial Awareness In Built Environment
Main Article Content
Abstract
We aren’t always aware of it, but our physical environment is constantly influencing our emotions and general wellbeing. There is a fine link between health promotion and the architectural design of any surrounding resulting in certain variables. The notion nowhere thrusts that the architecture, when used independently, has the ability to heal; but the architectural manipulation of space can act as a catalyst in creating a curative environment that may affect the physical and psychological behavior of human beings. Architectural spaces directly affect human emotions in a way validating that architecturally sound space helps in the natural process to alleviate.
