Towards Implementation of Sustainability Concepts in Develo** Countries

Part of the book series: Advances in Science, Technology & Innovation ((ASTI))

Abstract

The process of applying sustainability in the design of addiction rehabilitation centers is essential. Previous studies can be defined sustainability from two aspects, the first is technical and the second is psychological. Environmental sustainability involves interaction between patients and the surrounding spaces. The literature review reveals that the design of external or internal spaces surrounding the patient has significant influences on the patient’s state. There is a lack of researches that informs architects of the design elements and requirements that significantly influence patients’ state and show that designing spaces from a healing perspective have a positive effect on patients’ state. Those requirements enable the patients to interact with the surrounding environment and do several activities, which improve the healing process and care services for them. This study aims to identify the design requirements from international, national guidelines, and analytical studies of the patient's needs that make them interact with the surrounding environment. It too shows how to apply those requirements in the design process.
