SPACE ORGANIZATION

Organizing a space in architecture design is fundamental to the creation of

composition. Organization of space in architecture is fundamental to the
creation of composition. It brings together different forms and shapes and

provides a cohesive structure to the design. Space in a building can be arranged

and organized with certain rule of thumbs so they can relate upon one another

in a specific way. Space relationship between forms created from the
organization help define their interaction. Spaces in a building can be organized

into patterns so that they relate to one another in a specific way. Space

relationships between forms help define their interaction. Some common space
relationships used in architecture include Space within a Space, Interlocking

Spaces, Adjacent Spaces and Spaces Linked by a Common Space. In addition to

these spatial relationships, there are various types of organizational approaches

used in the design of buildings. Spatial 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. From the time of ancient civilizations to

modern architectural design, these compositional techniques have withstood

the test of time.
