[drugi u nizu od 5 članaka kroz koje ćemo u sljedećim tjednima pokriti najaktualnije teme arhitektonsko-prostorne tematike te stvoriti malu bazu podataka i razmišljanja o arhitekturi i njenom diskursu u online medijima]
U prethodnom poglavlju, arhitekti su nam pisali što misle o arhitekturi (link). Sada im postavljamo pitanje: Što je to prostor?
Kako arhitekti razmišljaju o prostoru? Što je prostor izvan Kartezijanskog trodimenzionalnog koordinatnog sustava? Koje dimenzije postoje u multidimenzionalnom prostoru vektora? Što oblikuje socijalni prostor? Označava li generički prostor beskonačno ponavljanje?… Javni prostor, privatni, unutarnji, organizirani, suvremeni, kaotični, virtualni, aktualni… kroz niz odgovora dobivamo spektar pogleda na prostor…

In other design fields, however, design space is conceived as an environment of force and motion rather than as a neutral vacuum.
In such an abstract active space, the statics of fixed points in neutral space is replaced by the stability of vectors that balance one another in a phase space.
Where baroque space is defined by multiple radii, a topological surface is defined as a flow that hangs from fixed points that are weighted.
Although baroque space is geometrically highly continuous and highly differentiated, it does retain multiple spatial centers.
Benjamin Dillenburger
Their distribution in space is an important characteristic of the parcel, and must be measured and saved in the index.
The space is arranged into a specified lot in three dimensions under adaptable, multiple fitness criteria. 2.2.
Since the search space is ample, we still can expect to find an adequate solution, gaining a greater flexibility and speed with the evolutionary strategy.
The overall area stays constant, only the arrangement of the space is changing.
Patrick Schumacher
As a communicative frame, a designed space is itself a communication as premise for all communications that take place within its boundaries.
Team Mazzanti
There are behavioral stereotypes that relate to aspects of leisure and play; ultimately space is a mechanism for political and social control, something [Michel] Foucault explores in detail.
Pedagogic spaces are not restricted to educational spaces, as education can occur in almost any structure we develop; space is in itself an educational mechanism that can generate forms of knowledge and information.
The transformation on how we share information through the flow of digital data have had strong influence on how we relate to each other and how those cultural exchanges take place on our society, that of curse has repercussions on the public space an the architecture, hoe we use and live space is not linked just to the physical sphere now, there’s a strong virtual space we need to understand and take advantage from.

The rest of the space is respected without being substantially modified.
The 4,8 x 4,8 m grid allows the construction of a maze like space, where the specificity of each space is defined by the content but not the continent.
Public space is an extremely interesting and complex location at the same time as for its management and design.
The space is not neutral, neither its format.
Jean Nouvel
The ‘Gasholder’ Housing in Vienna, for example, are a construction in which the perception of space is destroyed systematically.
Bernard Cache
But architectural space is not this general form of simultaneity; it is a space where coexistence is not a fundamental given, but rather the uncertain outcome of processes of separation and partitioning.
51N4E
Firstly because this space is jointly used by all and secondly because he could lend an identity to this development which would make it distinctly different from numberless districts of a similar type.
And precisely this atmospheric double illumination of the space is the reason why the lady of the house can bathe in the pool, while her husband’s clients cross the courtyard on their way to his office.
Sou Fujimoto
Unlike the internet, space is not capable of switching from 0 to 1 instantaneously.
Bernard Tschumi
Since e<:1ch frame is isolated from the next, architecture can begin to act as a series of surprises, a form of architectural jump cut, where space is carefully broken apart and then reassembled ‘at the limits’.
AmidCero9
We have to admit that space is a complicated term, mainly due to the semantic difficulties caused by its wide range of often contradictory meanings.
Taking up Liebnitz’s tradition of relational notion, space is therefore not a thing âsomething that exists out there, defined as the opposite of matter and therefore devoid of itâ but a system of relations between different agents, in permanent redefinition, while these entities interact and transform each other.
The prevalent aspect in this notion of space is an ongoing construction and active perception of our surroundings through its exploration, discovery, reading, codification and modification, transforming us from mere spectators into actors who build the scenario through an active relationship with the world.
ACTORS Given that for us, space is essentially an interactional phenomenon in which architecture is both context and participant in its definition, we need to identify and redefine the other actors in this set of interrelationships and interactions, beginning with humans.
Pier Vittorio Aureli
Political space is made into the institution of politics precisely because the existence of the space in between presupposes potential conflict among the parts that form it.
Liam Young
This I think is the first program that puts in place strategies and formalizes that process where an architect or a designer can leave the program with a network and set of skills, and a project that launches them into these allied disciplines of film, fiction, video games, documentary, marketing, politics all of these sites where the ability to tell stories across space is extraordinarily valued.
Fake Industries AA
Once closed, only office space is left, lighted by a glowing wall that has become Cesar’s corporate identity.
Alvaro Siza
According to the new law, an architect can only produce buildings, so public space is not our responsibility, but in the hands of landscape designers and other experts.
Juhani Pallasmaa
Space of Scent The strongest memory of a space is often its odor; I cannot remember the appearance of the door to my grandfather’s farm house from my early childhood, but I do remember the resistance of its weight, the patina of its wood surface scarred by a half century of use, and I recall especially the scent of home that hit my face as an invisible wall behind the door.
Yet space is not some thing that faces man.
Christian Kerez
Generic space is not an endless grid of identical elements.
It is in this regard that a space is able to take on ornamental qualities.
Nonetheless, Incidental space is emphatically not a space that has been created at random, or worse, a space that has generated itself.
Kuehn Malvezzi
These are the qualities a new museum building must have. Space may be displayed but first of all space is a display itself.
The key aspect of displayed space is the construction of a context which paradoxically rather than with the situation as found is to be identified with the architectural model to be inserted into it.
Architecture is never just a building, architecture as space is not something that you can touch, it is not something that you can actually photograph and see but a reality you have to experience and thus produce yourself first hand.
This space is a display of the honour and dignity of the academy members who financed the project and it is basically a way of displaying the citizenship in Vicenza.
LAN
When a space is asked to express forms of culture or power, an architect will have a hard time not questioning the values that this place is asked to embody.Power demands that it be actualized, rendered visible to an audience its abstract reality must be made manifest.
Tadao Ando
To me, that kind of space is ordinary, because in Japan it’s just a room with one flower decorating the space, and that’s about it.
Atelier Bow Wow
But on a larger scale, Japanese urban space is really different from its European counterpart.
European public space is very well constructed and represented.
In the case of Japan, the public space is more related to the time and all that accompanies the season, the best example is the time when cherry trees blossom at the end of March or beginning of April.

In Japan, public space is more related to this synchrony, to the existence of an event happening in the city, or provided by nature or related to religious rituals.
Our public space is less programmed and less settled.
Therefore it was also to refer back to your previous question of great value to us that the space is comfortable for both private and public use.
OOPEAA
The interior of the space is untreated finely sawn wood.
The space is intimate and almost sacral.
When dusk falls outside, the interior space is lit by movable, candle lit glass lanterns and tinplate lanterns carried by churchgoers.
Neri Hu
The space is framed by delicate brass metal structures and draped copper mesh, creating a permeable sense of enclosure, while forming the main apparatus for attaching a variety of embellishmentsâgreen glass pendant lights on pulleys, shelving for bottles and display, hooks for glassware.
Given the extremely small footprint, room space is maximized by custom furniture that both defines the space and meets all the functional needs.
Floating above as an abstracted volume, the form making of the space is intentionally primitive and suppressed, in order to celebrate the exceptional colours and textures that define Kvadrat.
The design concept of the space is to emphasize the “sharing” idea of eating tapas, and the four distinct areas in the restaurant (tapas bar, dining room, dessert bar, and the secret bar) are meant to provide different flavors and ingredients for diners to “share”, like they do the food.
Nameless
This cantilevered space is a physical as well as spiritual transition that connects daily life with religion.
Stated simply, the ground and the lower part of the adjoining space is one dominated by heaviness, created through three dimensional lamination’, continuing that ‘in comparison, a completely different sensation was sought for the ceiling and the connected upper space.
Li Xiadong
The interior space is plain and simple: the main space is composed of big steps that can also be used as bookshelves.
The aim of integrating technology into architectural space is to enable the houses to self adjust along with the alternation of outside environment.”
Three Dimensional Space Module System The 7.5m X 7.5m X 7.5m cubic space is the most important unit size from which to create the spatial module system as it is based on the original settings for a studio of 30 students.
Standard
The loft like space is clad in smooth troweled plaster walls and concrete floors with accents of stainless steel and black, charcoaled wood.
Rojkind
“The space is also designed to favor chance encounters
Christ Gantenbein
The living space is organised around an inner courtyard, whose mirroring surfaces, similar to the external ones, give an appearance of infinity. The new arts and design school building is the proud figurehead of Basel’s Dreispitz district.
SeArch
Good architecture and urban planning are in fact not tangible, because the space is in between.
Supermachine Studio
Natural light is brought in through the void skylights to make sure that the new space is bright enough.
Another social gathering space is the bar that is extended into a daybed; it can perform as a mini kitchen/bar with a storage space for fridge and glasses or a reading/resting with the storage space for books.
Serie Architects
We have used 4 colors, white and 3 shades of blue for the thread, while the rest of the space is treated in all white, a contemporary expression of a traditional visual palate.
HWKN
The space is both factory and gallery, where 3D printers, aluminum molding machinery and laser cutters are installed in full view of guests and staff.
Thom Mayne
Further reinforcement of the strategy to create a vibrant intellectual space is provided by the “skip stop” circulation strategy which allows for both increased physical activity and for more impromptu meeting opportunities.
REX
allowing maximum flexibility, the library’s expansion space is positioned adjacent to the main collection offering a variety of potential future uses.
Assemble
A café bakery and brewery are open to the public, space is offered for hire, and a monthly food and maker market.
Selgas Cano
We grew up with the idea that the only form of architecture and of possible space is that shaped by people’s natural needs.
Anne Holtrop
This space is important, because it relates to how the world works and our place in the world.
RCR
sculptural or architectural space works with both terms to highlight it; because space is only perceived when it is defined, just as colours only exist when there is light 47 with what sort of matter?
Wang Shu
This particular space is about 15 metres in circumference and approximately four metres high.
Steven Holl
Le Corbusier called it the ineffable space, which is ineffable time, so immeasurable space is immeasurable time.
Toyo Ito
I think that the present day city space is still unable to escape from the modernist grid.
Most of the floor here is sloped, and the current periodicals counter, the reading area, and the digital media viewing stations are situated here. On the second level, most of the space is dedicated to open stacks.
Thomas Heatherwick
The space is made from 66,000 fibre optic rods.
