The Impact of Interior Design on Spaces Inhabited by University Students

Interior design is closely related to the diversity of the spaces we inhabit on a daily basis. In the educational context, this study aims to analyze how the application of interior design principles can transform university students’ workspaces by evaluating various strategies and elements such as furniture arrangement, lighting, color and ergonomics. Through a review of the literature on environmental psychology and its link to academic performance, as well as surveys applied to university students, it was possible to obtain a deeper understanding of how these factors influence their daily experience and academic outcomes. The findings led to a set of specific recommendations for optimizing university spaces to enhance student well-being, creativity and academic performance.
