Application of Aromatic Medicinal Plants for Creating a Therapeutic Environment That Has a Sensory Impact in the Built Environment
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The work is based on a study of selected public, urban gardens with sensory features from Poland, supplemented with examples from Great Britain. The focus is primarily on creating spaces with therapeutic values, not only through their direct impact on the recipient, but also through their semantic value. Such an environment with a positive impact may be important especially for city dwellers, exposed to the adverse effects of the urban environment. The work includes a collection of several dozen plant species along with their uses and types of scent (excluding commonly known spice plants). In addition, thematic sets of plants associated with specific medicinal effects are proposed.
