2.1 Interactive Architecture
As a new trend in design, Interactive Architecture based on User and space connectivity, the capacity of space to respond in real time and to more efficiently meet various and evolving user needs, providing a continuous partnership between society and the built environment. It explains the development and growth of interactive architecture, evolving over time, the theory behind it and methods of implementation in the built environment. Jeremy Michalek (2010) stated that Both quantifiable and subjective purposes, desires, and constraints are involved in many aspects of design. In optimization models, aesthetic and other subjective aspects of design are usually overlooked because they are difficult to model with mathematics; but in areas such as product design and architectural design, they are extremely significant. Interactive approach for combining human decision-making with mathematical optimization during the conceptual design of architectural floor plan layouts. In a prior paper, the optimization models and algorithms were discussed. Here during optimization, an object-oriented representation enables the builder to communicate with physically related building objects. The involvement of the designer allows the program to dynamically alter the on-the-fly representation of optimization by inserting, removing, modifying objective, constraints and structural units. Hamed S.Alavi (2016) stated that In our designed worlds, at home, at work, and also in public urban spaces, we will have a new immersive experience in 2030. This is due to developments in sensing and actuation systems that can be incorporated into the infrastructure of the house, in symbiosis with the current environmental issues that demand new ways of life, work, and mobility. This transition can have a remarkable effect on our daily lives, whether incremental or abrupt, obvious or seamless. It also

requires efforts to define and prepare for future scenarios. We believe that buildings should be built and nurtured in a conversation with their users at both the individual and social level, as they will represent our digital and physical interactive everyday interactions. Hamed S. Alavi (2016) mentioned that interaction design is about integrating interactive technology into our built environment; architecture is increasingly about using interactive technologies to reimagine our built environment and creatively repurpose it. Alexandra Lee (2019) Stated that Infrastructure can dictate means of transportation and neighborhood walkability, which is associated with weight status. High neighborhood walkability has been found to be associated with decreased prevalence of overweight and obesity (36), which can link back to structural differences discussed earlier between urban and rural areas (urban areas having higher walkability).
2.2 Healthy Lifestyle
A healthier lifestyle is a way of living that decreases the risk of dying early or becoming seriously ill. Not all diseases are preventable, but it is possible to avoid a large proportion of deaths, particularly those from coronary heart disease and lung cancer. Peter Korp (2010) Mentioned that Strategies for disease prevention and health promotion have a long tradition of individual-level initiatives, with the primary goal being the promotion of 'safe lifestyles.' A sociological critique of the current healthy lifestyle debate has been prompted by emphasis at a person level devoid of social meaning. (Mathew J. Reeves) 2005 stated that the importance of healthier lifestyles is emphasized by several public health recommendations and clinical guidelines. Latest epidemiological studies indicate that there are important health advantages to adopting a healthy lifestyle. Earl S. Ford (2012) highlighted that Adults who do not smoke, consume a healthy diet, and participate in adequate physical activity will reduce their risk of early death significantly. According to Dana E. King MD (2007), A prompt advantage of lower rates of cardiovascular disease and mortality is experienced by people who have recently adopted a healthier lifestyle in middle age. Strategies should be implemented to promote the adoption of healthier lifestyles, especially among individuals with hypertension, diabetes, or low socioeconomic status. Walter C. Willett (2002) mentioned that educating people, improving the environment, adjusting the food supply, conducting community
