Nikos A.Salingaros, a mathematician and polymath known for
               his work on urban theory, believes," The geometrical properties
               of borders are scalefree, it doesn't matter how big they are;
               from a window frame to the border between two countries.
               This ability to jump scales is disconcerting to designers, who are
               used to working within very restricted dimensions. The results
               also cut across professional boundaries that separate interior
               design, architecture, urban design, and planning. And yet,
               despite the traditional separation of disciplines, the relevant

               Architecture primarily defines space by separating one
               area from another, and the requirement of this is creating
               differentiation between inside and outside. At the beginning of
               time, architecture had this tendency to enhance shelter and
               habitation by inside and give over movement and utilization of
               the natural environment outside. The inside and outside could
               not exist without each other. This essential relationship served
               by elements like walls, openings, and visual accesses and had              2 Alireza Shahlaei, Marzieh Mohajeri “In-Between Space, Dialectic of Inside
