| Abstract | ||||
| As economic and social productivity has advanced significantly over the years, our overall living standards have seen remarkable improvements. This progress has inevitably led to a shift in societal expectations regarding the environments in which we live and work. With increased industrialization and urbanization, there is a growing demand for enhanced environmental quality to foster better well-being among individuals. Given that people now spend nearly 90% of their time indoors, the quality of indoor environments has emerged as a critical issue that directly affects both health and comfort.. This heightened awareness has shifted our focus toward how our living and working spaces are designed, constructed, and maintained, employing methods such as surveys and case studies. Sustainability has evolved from being merely a trend to becoming a standard practice that significantly influences our daily choices. Terms like "green," "sustainable," and "recyclable" have become integral to everyday conversations and are central to discussions in universities and international forums, reflecting a collective commitment to building a more sustainable future for all through evidence-based practices. | ||||
