INTRODUCING GREENERY INTO A BUILDING BASED ON ITS IMPACT ON HUMAN WELLBEING - REVIEW OF THEORIES AND METHODS IN ARCHITECTURE

Abstract

Greenery around and within buildings is an integral part of architectural space. Although science is providing more and more knowledge about the impact of greenery on human well-being, there is still a lack of guidelines on how to apply this knowledge in architectural design. The purpose of this review article is to prepare the ground for further research on how to support architectural design in integrating greenery as a co-creative element of human living space. Existing review texts are diverse and scattered across various scientific fields, describing different goals, approaches, and research methods. Therefore, this review initially concentrates on examining the broad topic of perception in architecture, highlighting significant theories and methods. The next step involves analysis of the state of research specifically focused on wellbeing and perception of greenery in the built environment. Important criteria for this analysis include the potential for obtaining objective, quantitative results. Finally, the available research methods are categorized, considering their stages of development. Those that seem most relevant to the field of architecture have been identified.
