Abstract

Increasing urbanization and population influx into cities has increased congestion and thus increased non-normative construction in the urban environment. Increased construction leads to further degradation of the green environment, Gardens, and pristine spaces, which are the main respiratory source of the city's environment and urban people. This extensive environmental degradation Has increased the pollution of cities. The present study attempts to investigate the human need for green architecture and its effects on the modern human environment and the possibility of integrating green architecture with environmental psychology in order to more appropriately and accurately respond to mental and psychological needs.
