Integrating architecture, art, and design, this book presents a multidisciplinary perspective on aesthetics to address contemporary issues related to nature, urban spaces, and media environments.Exploring how different environments, both virtual and physical, impact our aesthetic experiences across various social contexts, the book focuses in particular on the environmental aspect, which includes protecting natural resources, habitats, and ecosystems to ensure their long-term health and sustainability. It also presents current debates surrounding commodification, innovation, and the democratization of artistic practices with a focus on the growing opportunities and challenges posed by digital technologies and artificial intelligence in shaping public perception, participation, and interest. To do so, it extends beyond traditional art institutions, engaging with built environments as active spaces for artistic intervention, aesthetic experiences, and collective imagination, and covering topics such as social well-being, fulfilling public needs related to the arts, and the seven pillars of sustainability.This book will appeal to scholars, researchers, and upper-level students in aesthetics, philosophy, visual cultural studies, communication studies, sustainability, and media studies, particularly those with an interest in sociopolitical and environmental discussions.
