Space Syntax
Space syntax is a quantitative method that analyzes the spatial configuration of buildings and settlements to understand social organization and movement patterns. Developed by Bill Hillier and Julienne Hanson in the 1980s, space syntax measures how open or segregated spaces are, and how these properties relate to social behavior and cultural values. The method reveals distinctions between public and private spaces, movement corridors, and the degree of accessibility within architectural layouts.
