“…Iran and India outlined three (3) studies, respectively. In Iran, studies show an inclination towards housing's interior rehabilitation examined by Zolfaghari et al (2023), assessment of social sustainability indicators as demonstrated by Karji et al (2019) and an analysis of the notion of becoming in the context of Mortafa housing as explored by Talebian and Özmen (2019). Meanwhile, in India, the focus is given on the application of sustainable prefabricated wall technology based on the article by Chippagiri et al ( 2021), followed by Shetty and Dash (2018) (Sharma and Sharma, 2022).…”

“…The current stage of mass housing development is debatable. On the one hand, it tackles the acute housing shortage; on the other, it has been criticized for its negative social, economic, and environmental impact (Zolfaghari et al, 2023). The primary factor for the rise of mass housing correlates to the need for urban housing, characterized by large-scale housing projects aiming to produce multi-story and multi-block designs due to the shortage of urban land resources (Gür & Yüksel, 2019).…”

“…However, as early as the 1970s, the limitation of this approach was recognized whereby facilities, neighbourhoods and settlements did not function as planned (Milovanović et al, 2023) due to the quality problems of existing housing stock (Asan & Özsoy, 2018). According to Zolfaghari et al (2023), the mass housing from the '60s to the 80s, after decades of continuous use and inadequate maintenance, revealed inadaptable responses of its interior conditions to the current needs of the occupants, shows high energy consumption and CO2 emission and high maintenance costs. Furthermore, centralized mass housing consistently failed to reach low-income households while demotivating individual entrepreneurship (Bunster & Bustamante, 2019).…”

Mass housing development is a global phenomenon that provides a subtle indicator towards population, urbanization, and economic growth. It centred itself in high volumes production with effective costing and construction techniques, promoting adequate living within standardized conditions. However, the current situation witnessed issues regarding mass housing quality and performance, which urged a reassessment of its model, regulatory framework, environmental conditions, and urban impact. Note that these contexts emphasize the design obsolescence risk gap caused by the deficiency of the modernist ideal. As such, this study provides insight into the emerging patterns and trends in the mass housing development literature that advocate its future design. Data were collected by using thematic review (TR) analysis on 30 articles published in SCOPUS and WoS databases from 2018 to 2023. The findings demonstrate five design trend themes: Contemporary Lifestyle Program, Dynamic Permeable Territory, Systemic Adequacy, Regional Energy Efficiency, and User Experience Design. These trends contribute significantly to the need for socio-spatial integration within mass housing design and its impact on urban territories, which helps improve environmental performance and innovate technological change beyond the existing IHS method. Consequently, the result also suggests that future studies in mass housing design should be able to redefine new habitational frameworks promoting contemporary needs and lifestyles that are substantially neglected today.

“…These analyses include evaluations focused on different types of structures and materials. For example, in structural analyses, it has been applied to tunnels [5][6][7][8][9], bridges [10,11], and footbridges [12,13], industrial buildings [14][15][16] or skyscrapers [17], mass housing [18], and modular residential towers [19]. It has also been used in assessing temporary [20][21][22][23], and self-promoting housing [24], as well as in evaluating the sustainability of construction materials like wood [25,26], concrete [27], and prefabricated structures [28].…”

This paper introduces the comprehensive value function, a novel framework designed to address multi-dimensional challenges in sustainability assessment within decision-making processes. Multi-criteria decision-making methods based on multi-attribute utility theory excel at integrating environmental, social, and economic factors but typically focus on positive and neutral impacts. This limitation often results in the oversight of critical negative consequences, thus restricting their effectiveness in all-encompassing sustainability evaluations. The proposed framework addresses this gap by quantifying the degree of satisfaction across a full spectrum of sustainability impacts and integrating negative outcomes essential for holistic assessments. The necessity of this model is highlighted by the shortcomings of current practices, where adverse impacts are frequently overlooked and existing frameworks fail to foresee the negative repercussions of various alternatives. By facilitating the creation of positive, negative, or piecewise functions, the CVF provides a comprehensive reflection of impacts, essential for well-informed sustainability decisions. Integrating this function into established decision-making models leads to a more balanced approach adept at navigating the intricate trade-offs inherent in sustainable development. Organised systematically, the paper presents the comprehensive value function, its application across various domains, and a concluding section synthesising the findings.

“…Therefore, ecological design can also be referred to as green design. It needs to incorporate the concept of Redefining the Home: Sustainable Interior Design in Multifamily Housing Systematic Review ijor.co.uk 2186 environmental protection into all stages of design, with the purpose of decreasing environmental pollution and energy waste and achieving a balance between sustainable development and economy (Zolfaghari et al, 2023). This approach seeks to merge energy efficiency, responsible use of resources, reduction of ecological footprint and promotion of family well-being in the creation of livable spaces, given that the increase in energy prices, global economic stresses and the effects of climate change are determining factors in the increase of energy poverty worldwide (Benincá et al, 2023).…”

This study investigates the impact of sustainable interior design on family well-being in multifamily housing, focusing on its contribution to environmental sustainability and improving quality of life. Its main objective is to synthesize recent research on how ecological approaches in interior design promote energy efficiency and use sustainable materials to optimize living spaces. Using the PRISMA methodology for the systematic review, studies were analyzed that highlight practices such as the integration of renewable energies and the use of local materials, which benefit the economy and the environment. The results reveal that such practices not only reduce costs and promote local employment, but also enhance occupational well-being. The conclusions emphasize the need to reconfigure residential design to face contemporary challenges and enhance sustainability. This study proposes new directions for future research on sustainable design, highlighting its impact on quality of life and its strategic importance for global sustainability.
