The concept of space in environmental design disciplines has evolved in interaction with philosophical and sociological conceptualization. The dichotomy in philosophical thinking has led to definitions of relative and absolute space. Other dualistic concepts of space in architecture include: perceived vs. conceived space; representation of space vs. representational space; physical vs. geographical space or physical vs. social space; virtual vs. real space; static vs. dynamic space, etc. By review of these dichotomies, it is concluded that they all are the result of assuming the space to be an absolute, abstract and physical entity. It is however, suggested that in fact space is a complex relational entity, which is the result of multifaceted interactions and is thus under constant transformation. It is therefore necessary to continuously review and revise its definition through a holistic, multifactorial and multidisciplinary approach.
