We interpret the following ideas or theories as relevant to the experience of intimacy.

A discussion on the significance of this research will follow in Phase II.


Phenomenological Contributors


"...continued search for a concrete understanding of the environment...The concept of existential space is devided in the complementary terms "space" and "character", in accordance with the basic psychic functions "orientation" and "identification"...."Thing, order, character, light and time are the basic categories of concrete natural understanding."

by Christian Norberg-Schulz, "Genius Loci Towards a phenomenology of architecture"


Senses.jpg Sense of Space


The senses operate at different distances from the body
An understanding of this principle is critical to any
proposal dealing with intimacy.

3axes.jpg Sense of Space


Three conditions of defining place.



Hierarchy of space.jpg Human Perceptions of Nearness


Distance as a human spatial indicator



Park guell analysis.jpg Gathering vs. Isolation Space


Concave or "Sociopetal" spaces
encourage gatherings based on their geometry.
The opposite is true for "Sociofugal" spaces.

Performacestimulation.jpg Stimulation vs. Performance


different conditions of feeling



Sociopetal space.jpg Border vs. Communication


encourage communiacation



Psychological Contributors











A room of one's own.jpg Publicly Accessible Private Space


Everyone needs privacy at some point.
Therefore, small private spaces should be
provided in any public space that hopes
to be successful.


Common areas at the heart.jpg Centered Common Areas


Social space is a need of all groups.
By providing common areas near smaller alcoves.


Entrance room.jpg Entrance Room


The threshold is a powerful communcation tool.
The act of entering and exiting a not the same,
thus should each be treated with respect.


Intimacy gradient.jpg Intimacy Gradient


Space should be organized in relation to increasing
privacy the deeper one progresses toward the center


Heirarchy of open space.jpg Hierarchy of Open Space


Provide protection to the rear and
a view to a larger open space. This
will encourage gatherings and it disarms
the natural human fear of being surprised.
