dc.description.abstractAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: The pressing exigency for sustainable practices in the domain of Interior Architecture (IA) stems from the profound environmental footprints left by conventional construction materials and processes. Amidst an era seeking eco-centric approaches, the exploration of alternative materials emerges as a pivotal venture. Mycelium, the vegetative part of a fungus, unfolds as a promising candidate with its potential to redefine materiality in IA. This thesis endeavors to delve into the possibilities engendered by mycelium-based materials within IA, aiming to probe their potential in fostering environmentally benign designs. Through a meticulous investigation into mycelium's attributes, its compatibility with IA applications, and the environmental reverberations it entails, the research seeks to underscore a paradigm shift towards symbiotic interactions between humans and nature. The journey from unearthing the ecological ramifications of traditional construction to unveiling mycelium's potential explicates a narrative of evolving towards sustainable materiality in IA. The elucidation of mycelium's role not only contributes to the discourse on sustainable materials but also envisions a future where design harmonizes with nature, thereby nurturing an ethos of environmental stewardship. Keywords: Mycelium, Interior Architecture, Sustainable Materiality, Environmental Stewardship, Eco-centric Approaches, Alternative Materials, Sustainable Designen
