Abstract:

This article aims to evaluate design approaches and publications related to well-being in architecture, interior architecture, and design. What is well-being for this purpose? What methodologies have been used in studies investigating the relationship between architecture, design, and well-being? Where have studies on the relationships between architecture, design, and well-being been conducted globally? Research data on well-being, including architecture and interior design, was searched in databases using keywords; architecture categories well-being and architecture, interior architecture, architectural design, design. The research utilized scientific mapping methods for analysis. This data analysis on architecture and well-being serves as an essential foundation for future research. According to the results of this research the most effective publications and keywords on well-being are revealed. In addition, this research provides an up-to-date perspective on the subject.
