Objective: This study aims to examine the physical, sensory, and social dimensions of design, revealing how universal design in demonstration gardens provides accessible and multi-sensory experiences for diverse user groups.Material and Methods: The sub-spaces and user profiles of Kapias Gardens were observed, and the functions, universal design approaches, and effects on well-being were analyzed using a monographic method. Spaces were evaluated according to universal design principles, with user experiences supported through qualitative observation and spatial assessment.Results: Inclusive landscape design ensures equal opportunities for diverse users through physical accessibility, orientation, circulation, and sensory features. Spaces are effective when they provide comfort and functionality; spaces that encourage social interaction enhance user satisfaction and social integration.Conclusion: This study shows that inclusive landscape design enhances spatial quality and user experience. Approaches supporting accessibility, sensory diversity, and social interaction facilitate usage and positively affect psychological and social well-being. Thus, landscapes integrated with universal design serve as exemplary models for inclusivity and spatial quality, guiding contemporary space production.
