As posited by Lawson (2001), architecture plays a pivotal role in shaping interiors, with the spatial arrangement impacting human activities through a shared architectural language. This symbiotic relationship, as underscored by Alimin and Pertiwi and Purwaningrum (2021), involves architects and interior designers preserving cultural identity and accommodating diverse lifestyles. Recognizing the profound influence of architecture on personal identity and behavior, the study emphasizes the significance of interior design in meeting human needs for well-being. The dissertation, rooted in the author's experiences in teaching interior design and pursuing a master's degree in architectural design, explores the reciprocal impact of the two disciplines. Highlighting architectural constraints faced by interior designers, the research aims to enhance creative thinking through human senses, utilizing museums as a case study. Dodd and Jones (2014) affirm museums' role in inspiring creativity and fostering well-being. The six-chapter research structure includes an introduction, literature review, research design, case study analysis, findings presentation, and conclusions with recommendations, providing a comprehensive exploration of the interconnected fields.44enInterior DesignArchitectural DesignHuman SensesCreative ThinkingArchitectureThesis
