Emotional Resonance of Space: Exploring the Role of Geometric Order in Design
Session
Architecture and Spatial Planning
Description
This paper aims to present how geometric order influences emotional experience in architectural space. Grounded in a phenomenological framework, the study explores the relationship between human perception and the implicit geometrical logic embedded in spatial compositions. Through analysis of original architectural and interior visualization projects, the research examines how proportion, alignment, and spatial hierarchy can evoke psychological responses such as calm, elevation, or introspection. The methodology combines visual-spatial analysis with experiential reflection, emphasizing the subtle ways geometry mediates meaning beyond formal aesthetics. Special attention is given to how spatial coherence, guided by geometric clarity, contributes to the sense of atmosphere and presence. The expected outcome is a deeper understanding of how intentional geometric structuring enhances spatial resonance, offering valuable insights into design practices that prioritize not only function, but also perceptual depth, emotional impact, and human-centered experience.
