Abstract

Giving attention to the psychological aspect of the human being, as well as addressing his physical demands, has recently been one of the aspects that have found a place in several fields. This paper attempts to reduce the impact of this psychological aspect (represented in the user's personality type and traits) and its impact on his physical demands (represented in interior design elements) through the literature review and the analysis of 11 previous research studies that discussed personality type and interior design to find the effect of the user's personality type on his interior design preferences. The paper aims to review whether the personality type is a new tool to embark the design process based on the user's traits and characteristics so that the interior space is nothing more than a reflection of the user's personality characteristics that allows the user and the interior space interact behaviorally as one entity.
