agree  Moti Marom: Environmental aesthetics also sounds ok to me, but that's the option that better conveys the original literal meaning.

  -> Thank you Moti ! I actually like this better
agree  Gilla Evans: Actually, it might be better to drop 'environment' and just say 'of the interior'. The word is often used alone to describe interior design or decor.

Explanation:
that´s how I interpret this term. Environmental aesthetics to my thinking refers to a green environment in nature.Here the indoor ambiente seems to be referred to.

neutral  Moti Marom: That's also a good option. But I prefer to stick by the closest words in the target language, rather than favoring the foreign ones.
