Introduction

Beauty is an abstract concept which is strongly associated with all aspects of human existence. The meaning of this word is concerned mainly with the philosophical discipline of aesthetics. In everyday life "beautiful" is usually referred to something that leaves a very pleasant impression, a nice body, a beautiful piece of music, a beautiful sequence of movements in the dance, or a fine architecture. All of this makes up the environment and the humans are strongly affected by their environment.

Environmental Psychology

Environmental Psychology studies the environmental awareness of the human being, or psychological processes involved in the relationship between physical environment and human behavior. The environmental psychology is a discipline that is part of the relationship that the individuals and groups have with the places where they live and work, and also the relationship they have with each other within these environments. From the psychological point of view, space and behavior are closely linked because every environment is practical and reflects the social components of the environment (Bonnes & Secchiaroli, 1995). On the other hand, all social interaction is mediated by the environment in which it is expressed.

According to the views of Tegmark, everything that exists is composed of mathematics and nothing else. According to his theory, there are numerous universes that have inhabited multiple time and space levels (Oliver, 2002). These theorists and scientist strongly believe in the fact that mathematics is the most central part of the universe. They believe that there is geometry in every aspect of the universe.
