The Impact of the Presence of Nature Elements on the Satisfaction of Residents of High-rise Buildings( case study of Ahrar Alzaman building )
Nature and its elements, including water, plants, fire, stone, and natural light, have always been fundamental to human life, bringing peace, happiness, and satisfaction. However, modern urbanization and the increasing scarcity and cost of land have led to the construction of vertical apartments, resulting in a disconnect from nature. Living in skyscrapers has resolved land scarcity in cities, but has created a gap between mankind and nature. To address this, incorporating nature into interior spaces of tall buildings can help create a sense of attachment and satisfaction for residents. In this project, focused on tall buildings in Tehran, research and case studies were conducted to select patterns for interior design that prioritize natural elements. The project aims to incorporate natural elements such as water features, green walls, and rock gardens into the building’s common areas, creating a new environment that fosters attachment and satisfaction among residents.
Creating long lasting green space in interior design
The presence of nature is necessary in human life. This need has been started in the past and will be continued. Backyards and patios and atriums were space elements that were created with the aim of bringing nature to enclosed environment. In the meantime, instead of creating a pleasurable atmosphere, it turned into rubble and unpleasant scene with plants dried up, since all men have not the same amount of time and patience, or the ability and knowledge of the maintenance of the plant. Thus, the plant that has been earlier in the garden without human life, is now needy to human for survival. In order to have a successful interior designing and to have a stable interior green space, it is necessary for the interior designer to have a high level of horticultural knowledge. In this study, a solution is proposed for spaces which are planned to have long lasting internal green spaces by collecting and analyzing the contents of the glass garden and to build more useful glass gardens and terrariums than old patios by enjoying science, technology and agriculture. So with least handle, such gardens stay green longer same as old gardens. More precisely, we are looking to find answers to the question of how to create a long lasting green space in the indoor environment .
