The Impact of Architecture in the Process of Healing & Well-Being

Abstract

As per the definition given by the World Health Population, health alludes to the condition of complete physical, mental and social prosperity and not just the nonappearance of sickness or infirmity. It acts as a crucial parameter in the country's development. It could disrupt due to various strains resulting in Stress-the body's response to anything or a situation that requires any attention or action.Architecture is deeply contextual and responds to its social and environmental context as much as its historical and physical one.If we are designing for the ripple effect consciously, we benefit the individuals and support the community.By creating a healing space, one evokes the feelings of serenity, calm, and relaxation and can contribute to an environment that facilitates the natural healing process-a process of repair, recovery, and return to wholeness in mind, body, and spirit.Since there have been strong human responses to nature because these responses appear in study after study and are consistent across social, economic, cultural, and racial boundaries, buildings are the structures that strengthen the local community and connect people.These help the neighborhood economy and how they work.In this way, when we configuration to amplify the positive -social, monetary, and natural variables become the waves of architecture and engineering.To look over the design consideration of such spaces in the institutions, how can the healing Space architecture become an integral part of healing itself?How can architecture have an active role in the healing process?The conventional design approach is missing the inspiration and connection with the built structure from its precincts.Thus, the architectural inputs can affect the building design and affect the healing process.It also creates a comfortable and interactive for both the patients/ visitor and the staff who spend the central part of their day in it and, most importantly, would create a network of community and built form.This study emphasizes the variation in the patient's mood and creates a healing place instead of the machine to treat people with patient-focused experiential perspectives. The dissertation has a framework with the chapters divided into different sections. The first section introduces the health and the role of psychology concerning the spaces that evoke different moods and emotions within the user. The next chapter discusses and brings the different parameters with the medical shreds of evidence by reviewing and analyzing a few previous research studies in the same field. The third chapter analyzed a few of the live architectural projects based on the parameters mentioned in the chapter before and made a comparative analysis of those projects. Lastly, in the fourth chapter, the inferences are developed with the design recommendations for the thesis's future study and guidelines.
