Space should not be considered as an empty area which is
perceived within physical boundaries. Theoreticians’ views on space, in
addition to creating alternatives to the perception of space, has led to
differences in the professional discipline of architects whose basic interest
is creating space as a result of their professional requirements.
Architecture sees space, which is an act of creating, as a unity together
with human acts.
This text will primarily cover issues of space, production of space,
experiencing and perceiving it. Views of theoreticians will be referred to
in order to describe the concept of space. As architecture is a discipline
that transforms the theoretical knowledge into practical knowledge by
interpreting it, theoreticians’ views on space are significant. While
examining the concept of time, views of theoreticians such as Bollnow,
Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Lefebvre, Norberg-Schulz, Alexander, Moles,
Pallsmaa, and Bergson will be elaborated on. Furthermore, concept of
space will be examined through phenomena such as the temporal
dimension in defining, producing and experiencing the space and shaping
the space according to the dynamics of daily life.
In the second part of the text, concept of space will be evaluated through a
number of selected examples of architectural design applications. The
selected examples include works with different scales such as urban
design works, public space arrangements, structure designs, interior space
designs, playground designs, and furniture designs. Also, how the concept
of space is used in directing the architectural designs and its effect on the
final product will be stated. Designs will be studied which are innovative,
compatible with the environment, and multipurpose in accordance with
human needs by determining the needs of people, examining the actions,
employing technological opportunities, and using up-to-date materials in
the process of creating space.
