The Summary: "The All is greater than the sum of its parts" (Ref. 3), "the successful design of the whole building is a solution greater than the sum of its parts" (Ref. 2); The overall design is expected to meet the most complex requirements, so what is said about design is always a total work, and from this concept the architect and the interior designer are two parts of specialists who participate in the process of successful project design and implementation (Ref. 5). The principles of the Holistic theory also have the greatest credit for the success of each architectural design internally and externally. In this research, all the requirements for implementing the Holistic theory are reviewed with an architectural view, and also the most important needs of the designer and user of architectural spaces from the point of view of the Holistic theory; As well as the clear merger between the Holistic theory and architectural design and interior design, which is called "Holistic design." So that the research problem lies in eliciting the relationship between the principles and basics of the holistic theory and the stages of designing and implementing an internal environment with a holistic design. The research assumes that: The Holistic theory is the design theory whose principles must be followed when making an integrated interior design. Designing a successful environment internally and externally follows the fundamentals of holistic theory. The research aims to: - Conducting an analytical study of the holistic theory and its relationship to architecture and interior design. - An analytical study of the stages of designing and implementing a successful college environment internally and externally with the principles of the total theory. The research also follows the descriptive approach and the analytical and applied approach. The research found that the principles of the holistic theory are the basis for the success of each architectural design, internally and externally. The Holistic theory helps to preserve the natural environment and reduce pollution of the industrial environment.
