Abstract This study started from the point of view which recognizes that urban architectural space of mobility became the conditions of the new life, not attributing it to the result from the placelessness. In this regard, this study aims to identify the method in which general life of global world and social relationships are revealed spatially, focusing on urban architectural space of mobility, the typical space of global society. To this end, the discussion of Mark Auge who explains special nature of urban architectural space in the global era with the concept of 'non-place' as opposed to the conventional concept of the place was adopted as the framework of analysis. In this study, the method in which 'non-place' is spatialized in an architectural manner and experience provided by the space was embodied with focus on the general 'spaces of non-place' claimed by Marc Auge to add an architectural analysis. Accordingly, this study has its significance as an attempt to analyze the problems of contemporary urban architecture in terms of place theory.
