Abstract

In the rapidly evolving landscape of Smart Cities, the integration of Interactive Healing Environments (IHEs) emerges as a pivotal component to foster well-being, community engagement, and a profound sense of belonging. This research will outline a comprehensive framework explaining the concept of IHEs and their transformative potential in strengthening individual well-being through immersive multisensory experiences. The paper will delve into the core essence of IHEs, outlining their fundamental attributes and explaining their seamless integration within the fabric of evolving cities. By leveraging cutting-edge technology and innovative design principles, IHEs serve as dynamic spaces that cater to the diverse needs and preferences of inhabitants, transcending conventional notions of urban environments. IHEs provide multifaceted benefits ranging from stress reduction and mental rejuvenation to fostering social cohesion and community empowerment. Through interactive installations, ambient lighting, therapeutic sounds, and tactile elements, these environments offer a holistic approach to well-being enhancement, catering to the sensory faculties of individuals and nurturing a sense of connection with their surroundings. A strategic roadmap for the implementation of IHEs within urban environments and/or liveable Smart Cities, encompassing key considerations such as accessibility, sustainability, and inclusivity. By fostering collaborative partnerships between urban planners, technologists, healthcare professionals, and community stakeholders, this framework aims to catalyse the proliferation of IHEs as integral components of future urban landscapes within urban environments. In essence, this research will encapsulate a pioneering vision for the convergence of technology, design, and human-centric principles to create Interactive Healing Environments that not only enhance individual well-being but also foster a vibrant sense of community and belonging within liveable
