Designing an Interior Residential House with an Ecological Concept Approach (Friendly Environment)
Abstract
The design of residential interiors with an ecological concept aims to create living spaces that are environmentally friendly, sustainable, and support the well-being of their occupants. This approach integrates ecological principles in material selection, space design, and green technology to minimize environmental impacts and optimize energy efficiency. The study examined strategies such as the use of recycled and natural materials, optimization of natural lighting and ventilation, and energy-saving technologies. Materials such as certified wood, bamboo, and VOC-free paint were selected to improve indoor air quality and sustainability (Digitalcommons@usu & Platt, 2007). The design of the space prioritizes natural lighting and air circulation through windows, skylights, and cross ventilation. Indoor plants and energy-efficient equipment such as LED lights are used to beautify the room and reduce energy consumption. Green technologies such as solar panels and rainwater collection systems are applied to reduce dependence on conventional resources. The design results show that the ecological concept in the interior of the house creates a healthier, more comfortable, and more sustainable environment.
