Abstract

Urbanization promises a better life in cities, drawing more individuals seeking space and opportunity. However, these aspirations often result in distressing and sore living conditions. Using literature review methods, this research seeks to achieve two primary objectives: firstly, to identify elements significantly impacting mental health and contributing to stress in urban settings; and secondly, to summarize strategies within the built environment to improve the quality of live. The limitations of this research is focusing on elements discerned from existing literature and filtered by the case for high density urban. The study focuses on urban morphology elements: buildings, streets, and plots. It highlights significant factors gathered from current literature. For example, the building element delves into features like windows and sky views factor, while the street element assesses their potential role in traffic congestion. Additionally, the plot element scrutinizes the influence of green and blue spaces within urban landscapes.
