Space Organization

What are the conditions that influence the space organization?

• Building program demands and exterior site conditions

• Material collaboration, aesthetic contributions, and functional proximities

• Aesthetic contributions, exterior site conditions, and client requirements

• Functional proximities, hierarchical classification, and access requirements

What are the examples of spatial qualities?

• Enclosed, visible, linear, and continuous

• Open, linear, continuous, and spacious

• Spacious, enclosed, visible, and linear

• Open, enclosed, visible, and continuous

How can space within a space have a higher attention-value?

• By taking the form of the enveloping shape, but be oriented in a different manner

• By being interlocked with another space

• By being separated by a row of columns

• By being merged with one of the spaces

What is the characteristic of a centralized spatial organization?

• Consists of a dominant central space with linear extensions

• Uses proximity to relate its spaces to one another

• Consists of a number of secondary spaces grouped around a large, dominant, central space

• Consists of forms and spaces regulated by a three-dimensional grid pattern

How is the circulation path related to the spaces of a building?

• It is unrelated to the organizational pattern of the spaces

• It is influenced by the organizational pattern of the spaces

• It influences the organizational pattern of the spaces

• It has no impact on the spaces of a building

What are the different types of building entrances?

• Grid, network, and composite

• Centralized, linear, and clustered

• Linear, radial, and spiral

• Flush, projected, and recessed

How can the form of a circulation space be varied?

• By making the opening lower, wider or narrower than anticipated

• By making the entrance extra deep

• By using circuitous ramps or stairs

• By using ornamentation or decorative embellishment

What is the nature of a clustered spatial organization?

• Consists of forms and spaces regulated by a three-dimensional grid pattern

• Uses proximity to relate its spaces to one another

• Consists of a dominant central space with linear extensions

• Consists of repetitive, cellular spaces that have similar functions

What is the characteristic of a linear spatial organization?

• Consists of a number of secondary spaces grouped around a large, dominant, central space

• Consists of forms and spaces regulated by a three-dimensional grid pattern

• Consists of a dominant central space with linear extensions

• Consists of a series of spaces directly related to one another

What are the ways of linking common space in a spatial organization?

• By making the intermediate space differ in form and orientation from the two spaces

• By making the intermediate space merge with one of the spaces

• By making the intermediate space the dominant space in the relationship

• By making the intermediate space equivalent in shape and size to the two spaces
