A good living environment is when all elements are in unison, complementing each other. It‟s when an environment is seen as a whole rather than parts. Thus, the correct use of elements in an environment will very well play an important role in well-being and also compensate for the quality life. However, the question is; what are these elements and how can they be effectively integrated into living spaces? Hence, this paper seeks to address these issues by identifying and analyzing the key elements necessary for creating living space conducive for well being. It relates and illustrates by example, how the elements in question can complement each other in a good living environment.
