The thesis aims to investigate the role of the built environment with the help of design elements, in promoting mental health among young adults. The study will focus on how architectural design choices can contribute to- wards normalization and de-institutionalisation of mental healthcare facilities for the youth. The academic paper aims to explore the impact of the built environment on mental health in an ever changing modern society. The research will examine several literature studies, academic writings, case studies and primary sources through fieldwork, observations and interviews. Social and environmental factors which might influence the youth and how design choices can address these factors will also be analyzed. Overall, the thesis seeks to provide insights on how architects can create spaces that not only prevent mental illnesses but also promote mental wellbeing among young adults. While mental health is a very prominent topic currently, this thesis aims at providing an alternative approach towards the topic through architecture.

The thesis seeks to analyze the Mughal Architecture in Old Delhi from 1526 till 1707. Starting with a brief description about the history of India, it allows the reader to acknowledge the motifs of the Mughal sultanate and how it was established. The writing advances to introduce the six main Mughal emperors in Delhi such as Babur, Humayun, Akbar, Jahangir, Shah Jahan and Aurangzeb respectively. The six emperors not only passed on their architectural knowledge, but also built famous palaces in parts of Delhi that we, in today’s day call Old Delhi. Some of these palaces will be analyzed from a sustainable standpoint to understand how the architecture tackled the extreme climate conditions of the region. Through this categorical breakdown of the Mughal Architecture, the thesis aims towards understand and inspiring the use of vernacular architectural sustainability and its positive effects created by its utilization.
