Decorative arched openings have re-emerged as a defining design component in contemporary residential interiors, merging structural expression with artistic ornamentation. This study investigates the aesthetic integration of decorative arches through morphological analysis, engineering evaluation, spatial perception assessment, and cost modeling. Using the photographed interior installation as a case example, the research evaluates how ornamental curvature, embedded floral recesses, and compositional asymmetry influence interior ambience, lighting diffusion, and visual comfort. A conceptual design framework and engineering design principles are proposed for optimal arch fabrication, proportioning, material selection, and structural performance. Results from preliminary simulations, cost analysis, and comparative literature review demonstrate that decorative arches significantly enhance spatial identity, create visual focal points, and support biophilic interior strategies when properly engineered. The paper contributes a holistic design engineering aesthetics model suitable for architects, interior designers, construction professionals, and residential developers seeking to integrate decorative arches into modern home interiors.
