The lifestyle change resulting from the pandemic has led to a notable increase in the amount of time spent in residential interiors. This has resulted in an expansion of the range of activities performed in these spaces, which now encompass not only basic living functions but also work and access to culture. The evolution of interior design in an era of widespread migration, climate risks, demographic and social changes is evidenced by the changing functions, technologies and materials that are developing and expanding on a daily basis. This article presents a study of the visual perception of architectural interiors in representatives of different cultures, specifically those of Chinese (Vietnamese), Orthodox (Greek) and Western (Polish) civilizational backgrounds. The aim is to identify differences derived from cultural backgrounds. The objective of the study was to identify features that are sensitive to cultural diversity in interior design. In order to create fully inclusive interior design, it is essential to understand how interiors are perceived and how they affect the user by representatives of different audiences with different cultural backgrounds. This understanding can be used to preserve local identities, avoid globalisation and create fully inclusive places that are adapted to the needs of all users regardless of their ability or origin. The research has resulted in interior design guidelines that take into account the cultural diversity of users.
