PATH –SPACE RELATIO NSH IPS

Paths may be related to the spaces they link in
the following ways. They may:

Pass by Spaces
• The integrity of each space is maintained.
• The configuration of the path is flexible.
• Mediating spaces can be used to link the path
with the spaces.

Pass through Spaces
• The path may pass though a space axially,
obliquely, or along its edge.
• In cutting through a space, the path creates patterns
of rest and movement within it.

Terminate in a Space
• The location of the space establishes the path.
• This path-space relationship is used to approach and
enter functionally or symbolically important spaces.
