| Abstract |
This study is the quantitative analysis which doesn't only focus on Kahn's statement but also the architectural space itself. The purpose of this study is to understand Kahn's architecture with an actual proof with the use of Space Syntax. The results of this study were as follows;
Firstly, in the spatial configuration like concentric circle centering around a huge space, the characteristics are,
- forming the rank of syntactic value and determining building user's flow
- clarifing building user's spatial cognition
- representing Kahn's architectural concept from the beginning
Secondly, in the spatial configuration with centrality by putting specific spatial unit to the universal spaces without especially integrated or segregated spaces,
- spatial configuration would rather be settled by Kahn's architectural concept which has priority to building's function than satisfy the functional demand following building type.
Thirdly, Kahn's void space doesn't mean empty space but his point of architectural concept ; 'Room' |
