Abstract
This study aims to reveal the concepts that constitute space through architectural discourses. Within the scope of this study, a conceptual reading model has been developed based on theoretical and practical discourses on space by 9 prominent architects from the 1950s to the present day. The content analysis method and the MAXQDA program have been utilized as the interface for evaluating these discourses, yielding a model that can be tested across various architectural typologies and/or individual cases. In this context, four main components that constitute space, namely ‘change, meaning, syntax, and vital comfort’, have been identified. Alongside these, a network of relationships has been constructed with quantitatively prominent subconcepts. Based on all analysis outputs obtained, it has been recognized that space constitutes a dialectical relationship as a whole, capturing the era through change, taking form through syntax, quantifiable through vital comfort, and ultimately creating memory through the meaning it acquires.
