Vol. 2 No. 2 (2024): Designing for Well-Being: Current Research in Architectural and Building Science

In this thematic issue, “Designing for Well-Being: Current Research in Architectural and Building Science,” we present diverse inquiries into user-centered environments and sustainable project management. Studies on the Santa Maria Fatima Church in Magelang illustrate how innovative lighting and sonic crystal technology enhance occupant comfort and spatial experiences. Another paper explores how contractual elements influence project performance in educational buildings, emphasizing robust frameworks. Finally, an inclusive community activity center for the elderly underscores the social dimension of design and fosters intergenerational bonds. Collectively, these contributions demonstrate architecture’s pivotal role in promoting holistic well-being.
