Abstract: This paper presents the results of a systematic literature review (SLR), aiming to investigate how AI is ever more deeply integrated into the field of interior design, particularly to enhance its sustainability, personalization, and efficiency. The paper is produced throug a desktop review of existing literature sourced from ISI Web of Knowledge, Science Direct, and Springer databases that deal with the study of the integration of artificial intelligence in interior design techniques. Inclusion was based on research on AI technologies, their application within the design process, and their contribution to innovative and sustainable solutions. The studies covered the period from 2000 to 2023. A systematically conducted, broad, and comprehensive search found a scrupulously selected pool of 33 publications that were eligible for inclusion. Conclusions point to the fact that AI has a significant capacity to drive changes in the design process, enhance user experience through personalized design options, and cultivate green design solutions. AI technologies can mine and analyze enormous data sets to discover minute human preferences and, through this, develop visually appealing, ecologically viable, and efficient spaces. It is the changing interaction between AI systems and design professionals that holds the key to the future development of the interior design profession through AI technologies and thus underpins the collaborative opportunity available in this context. Moreover, the analysis highlights an increasing focus on integrating AI technologies to enhance design sustainability, suggesting a transition towards more conscientious and inventive design methodologies. Nevertheless, the research acknowledges the difficulties associated with accepting and implementing technology and the need for comprehensive frameworks to guide the ethical use of artificial intelligence in the design field.
