Abstract
A human health is one of the most important points of concern for States and governments in general. In addition to strategies for prevention of diseases, countries spend vast sums to maintain the health of their individuals. These strategies include the protection of the environments in which human practice different life activities. If the proportion of time spent within the house about 50% or more, it is normal to have a significant impact on the health of human body, consequently, the residential environment plays an important role in the achievement of health for their users. Researches and studies, including both architectural or health studies has varied in perceptions and visions of the healthy house, but these studies did not clearly specify the different characteristics of healthy house that must be taken into consideration during the architectural design process in order to produce houses where there are health conditions makes it a healthy house. So, the main aim of this paper is to induct and classify health characteristics that should be in a healthy house and analyzing its interrelationships. To achieve the main aim of the research, the study uses descriptive, analytical and deductive methodologies to conclude and classify characteristics of healthy houses. The research studies at first the different definitions and concepts of health and its relationship with house. The second part is studying the interrelationship between design considerations on one hand and health on the other hand. Then the paper studies the principles of healthy housing from different views to conclude a set of characteristics for healthy house. Finally, the paper presents the most important results of the study and discussion for the results. Then the paper presents some recommendations associated with the research results.
