This paper examines the design of the learning environment as a factor influencing students’ psychological well-being and learning engagement. The learning environment is considered not merely a physical space, but a combination of conditions that affect students’ ability to concentrate, emotional comfort, motivation, and interaction with others. The paper analyses the importance of spatial organisation, lighting, acoustic conditions, furniture arrangement, visual design, and functional zoning in the effective organisation of learning activities
