For a home design to be successful, it should boost your mood, but it also needs to reflect the owner in an authentic and personal way. At the same time, it should offer good flow and functionality so that it is livable. Effective design calls for creative problem-solving skills, and of course, the space must offer aesthetic appeal and absolute enchantment for the design to be considered a true success. Interior design encompasses much more than just creating a pleasing-looking space. It involves accepting yourself and your way of life. It enhances both our quality of life and how we live our daily lives. Thus, we form our spaces just as much as our spaces mold us. In modern times, beautiful design is no longer enough. With the pervasive and discouraging threats surrounding climate change and humanity's abuse of natural resources and wildlife, it is necessary to weave environmental ethics into our interiors. Our homes must reflect our values and our values must include a deep reverence for the environment. This book will introduce you to basic interior design fundamentals as well as the principles of Sustainable Design. Sustainable Interior Design centers around an honest commitment towards protecting the Earth and its dwindling resources. Sustainability in interior design means upholding eco-friendly design methods and principles, such as energy efficiency, biodegradable materials, etc., for the betterment of the human race and the environment. Dive in to discover out how easy it can be to incorporate sustainability into all of your living spaces!

This book crosses disciplinary boundaries to investigate how the benefits of green spaces can be further incorporated in public health. In this regard, the book highlights how ecosystem services provided by green spaces affect multiple aspects of human health and well-being, offering a strategic way to conceptualize the topic. For centuries, scholars have observed the range of health benefits associated with exposure to nature. As people continue to move to urban areas, it is essential to include green spaces in cities to ensure sustained human health and well-being. Such insights can not only advance the science but also spark interdisciplinary research and help researchers creatively translate their findings into benefits for the public. The book explores this topic in the context of ‘big picture’ frameworks that enhance communication between the environmental, public health, and social sciences.

The book addresses the interdisciplinary and multiscale theme of the design of sustainable, inclusive and creative urban green spaces in relation to the socio-ecological transition and in line with the systemic vision promoted by the 2030 Agenda, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the principles outlined by the New European Bauhaus (European Commission, 2021). The publication refers to the International Study Day organized in June 2022 by the Unit for Internationalization of the PDTA Department of the Sapienza University of Rome, develops and updates its themes, with essays that deepen theories and methodologies pursued in specific disciplinary and research fields, and with case studies of design experiments and achievements that constitute best practices at an international level in the sign of a conscious sustainability. The book is therefore part of an international and interdisciplinary dialogue and discussion focused on the challenges of climate change, economic crises and social inequalities as well as the questions that emerged during the Covid-19 pandemic. These issues are fundamental in the rethinking and reconfiguration of the role of urban green spaces, conceived as a priority place for the existence of citizens, the archetype of European culture, the conservation of biodiversity, and the relationship with nature.

Across European cities the use of urban space is controversial and subject to diverging interests. On the one hand citizens are increasingly aware of the necessity for self-organising to reclaim green spaces. On the other hand local authorities have started to involve citizens in the governance of urban green spaces. While an increased level of citizen participation and conducive conditions for citizens’ self-organisation are a desirable development per se, the risk of functionalising civil society actors by the local authority for neoliberal city development must be kept in mind. Drawing on qualitative and quantitative data collected in 29 European cities from all four European geographic regions, this book examines the governance of urban green spaces and urban food production, focusing on the contribution of citizen-driven activities. Over the course of the book, Schicklinski identifies best practice examples of successful collaboration between citizens and local government. The book concludes with policy recommendations with great practical value for local governance in European cities in times of the growth-turn. This book will be of great relevance to students, scholars, and policy-makers with an interest in environmental governance, urban geography, and sustainable development.
