Integrating 3D Printing Technology in Sustainable Interior Design forEnhanced Human Comfort and Environmental Stewardship
Abstract: As people spend nearly 70% of their time indoors, the quality of interior environments has a significant impact on human comfort, health, and overall well-being. Many indoor spaces are negatively affected by pollutants and toxins originating from construction materials, furnishings, surface finishes, and inadequate ventilation, often contributing to issues such as Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). Enhancing indoor environmental quality (IEQ) has therefore become a critical concern within sustainable design. This …
