Abstract

This article reflects an attempt to philosophize space and experience in architectural practice. The article identifies important aspects that help architects not only create functional and aesthetic buildings, but also shape certain philosophical, cultural, psychological contexts and social practices. The purpose of the study is a philosophical analysis of the relationship between architectural space and the subjective experience of a human, as well as the definition of principles, which are reflected in architecture. In accordance with the topic, the following tasks were set philosophical analysis of architectural space through the prism of “space as experience”; study of the relationship between space and subjective human experience; identification of different architectural approaches to space formation; justification of how space constraints affect architectural solutions. Based on the tasks set, examples of creative approaches and adaptive architectural solutions are analyzed. The philosophical understanding of space and experience in architectural practice is an important aspect that opens new perspectives for architectural practice, contributing to the creation of more sensitive, humane, and adapted to the needs of society spaces. The conclusions state that it is important to consider cultural peculiarities and historical context in the creative process, as this can significantly affect the perception and use of space. Architects should consider the ethical aspects of their projects: sustainability, accessibility, and social justice. The work focuses on how space constraints contribute to the search for new forms, materials and technologies that can significantly improve the functionality and aesthetics of architectural objects and stimulate new creative approaches.
