In class, we also compare the four types of space in a building with the Kevin Lynch's "five elements" of urban space in the Image of the City. That is,
Four types of space: PLACE, PATH, TRANSITION and SERVANT
VS.
Five elements: PATH, EDGES, DISTRICTS, NODES and LANDMARKS.
Homework:
- Diagram 1 (this can be multiple drawingss): Designate the places, paths, transitions and servant spaces in your building;
- Diagram 2: Draw a bubble diagram of your building;
- Diagram 3 (this can be multiple drawings): Use two types of definition for each of the five elements of spaces. For example, paths (in terms of a. public vs. private, b. hallways vs. non-hallways), nodes (in terms of a. the value core or b. movement joints)
