The activities have already been mentioned in the interactions chapter. The diagram is shows in this paragraph as well. Each of these activities needs a different environment. An architectural space that differs in size, materialization, shape, interior, perception, outside connection, routing, etc. But the activities have a lot in common at the same time. They are even better subdivided in some sort of gradient than a strict matrix. Therefore, lots of different spaces are needed.

Activities and Space

The activities have already been mentioned in the interactions chapter. The diagram is shows in this paragraph as well. Each of these activities needs a different environment. An architectural space that differs in size, materialization, shape, interior, perception, outside connection, routing, etc. But the activities have a lot in common at the same time. They are even better subdivided in some sort of gradient than a strict matrix. Therefore, lots of different spaces are needed.

Activities

  • - Think
  • - Meditate
  • - Input
  • - Output
  • - Discuss
  • - Teach

Characteristics of Spaces

  • - Shape
    • - Composition
    • - Scale
  • - Materialization / Color
  • - Interior
  • - Objects
  • - Lightning
  • - Openings
  • - Routing / Connectivity
  • - History / Character
  • - Actors / Figurants

Perception

There exist a lot of different ways an architectural space can interact with people. For this stage of the design process focus has been shifted towards one of them: architectural space. The feeling people have in a church is completely different than, for instance, a classroom. Ignoring the function, materialization and use of color and looking only at the shape and the proportion of dimensions the perception of the two is completely different. How can a space influence a person's behavior, thoughts, feelings, etc.? How is architectural space perceptible?
