DEFINITION
Organization of space in architecture is fundamental to the creation of
composition. Spaces in a building can be organized into patterns so that they
relate to one another in a specific way. Space organization between forms help
define their interaction. The decision as to what type of spaces’ organization to
use in a specific situation will depend on the building program such as functional
relationships, dimensional requirements, hierarchical classification of spaces,
requirements for access ,light, or view, exterior conditions of the site that might
limit the organization's form or growth. Space organizations help unite an array
of otherwise disparate shapes. Common methods of spatial organization include
centralized organization, linear organization, radial organization, clustered
organization and grid organization. These organizational methods can be found
in architecture throughout all ages.
