Abstract

Evidence-based design is a methodology for identifying solutions to achieve a specific design goal that can yield a beneficial outcome. A healing garden is a general term used to describe a nature-oriented space, both inside and outside buildings, that assists in improving the mental and emotional well-being of its users. Consequently, the application of design thinking in architecture, which seeks to create opportunities for form and function, is on the rise. This approach enables the creation of structures that are not only visually striking and functional but also more sustainable, user-friendly, and reflective of their location and the people who interact with them. One type of design thinking developed by architects and utilized by people to overcome hot and cold climates is called increased adaptability. The research method in this study is applied and analytical-descriptive, qualitative in nature, and employs comparative analysis. In this study, we attempted to explain the opportunity for adaptive adaptability and provide passive strategies and architectural solutions for healing gardens through evidence-based design to enhance comfort. The aim of this research is to identify a range of passive strategies and architectural solutions for healing gardens. This study provides researchers with a systematic and comprehensive understanding of the opportunity for adaptability and can also guide designers and architects in enhancing these opportunities with passive strategies and architectural solutions for healing gardens.
