​Space the Final Frontier

The Big Question................
What is it about a space that makes us in essence feel at home?
What are the thoughts and feel generate by spaces?
How can we change a space to meet our needs?

Atmosphere of Spaces

In architecture and spatial design, atmosphere refers to the sensorial qualities that a space emits. Atmosphere is an immediate form of physical perception, and is recognised through emotional sensibility. Architects and designers use the notion of atmosphere to argue that architecture and space is designed and built for people to use and experience.
