Spatial Identity in the Context of Interior and Building Environment

Abstract

The research paper explores the concept of "spatial identity" within an interior and building environment. It aims to determine how physical and psychological elements contribute to spatial identity in interior design and architecture. The study primarily uses literature review and synthesis, discussing on theories like place identity, sense of place, place attachment, and spatial experience. Key findings suggest that spatial identity is shaped by both physical attributes (such as form, materials, and layout) and psychological elements (like emotional ties and memories). The research concludes that a building’s design can offer meaningful spatial identity through thoughtful integration of these elements.
