    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figure-ground_diagram

    This shift is represented in the fragmentation of the figure ground's formerly dense poche, or the black figures in the diagram representative of built structure. [10] During the twenty-first century this increasingly fragmented urban condition has proven problematic and is being addressed by the New Urbanism movement's promotion of infill ...

  5. Space syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_syntax

    Space syntax has also been applied to predict the correlation between spatial layouts and social effects such as crime, traffic flow, and sales per unit area. [citation needed] In general, the analysis uses one of many software programs that allow researchers to analyse graphs of one (or more) of the primary spatial components.

  6. Spatiality (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatiality_(architecture)

    Spatiality in architecture is achieved in different ways, by using one of the design principles. In a general sense, the principles are classified into: a) those that use space organisation to determine or redefine boundaries, and b) those that use visual treatment to create a perceptive experience of its extension. In the physical sense, the ...
