Abstract The paper aims at investigating the extended spatiality of architecture, theoretically tracing the conceptual development and Recognition of architectural space toward urban/territorial space. In turn, it traces the physical and visual recognition of space as an interior and the urban/territorial space which is explained by the extended spatiality of architecture with a concept of interiority. The results of this study are as follows. Architecture does not simply create the rooms, but makes them open toward urban/territorial field. Thus, it makes not merely the quality of a building’s interior, but also contributes to making the value of urban/territorial interior which pertains to the field of urbanism or landscape architecture. It therefore has a twofold form that affects both interiority. The results have profound implications; one possibility of integrating architectural and urban/territorial spaces and another possibility of an urban/territorial space being recognized by interiority. Both can be new discourses on the fields of architecture, landscape architecture, urbanism and even interior architecture/design to foster interdisciplinary dialogue regarding the enhancement of urban/territorial spatial quality and value. Ultimately, this paper serves as theoretical foundations for theorists and practitioners to give better spatial qualities and values to public interiors and to support for the implementations in today’s large urban/territorial development projects.
