Abstract

Transitional spaces are spaces in which the dominant factor for the creation of space are the activities taking place within them. As we have seen in Chaps. 3 and 6, the importance of the three parameters that in my opinion define architectural space: context, construction and activities all have shifted. This shift on the emphasis of construction was to overcome the dominance of the context, which resulted in a move from Sequential to Universal space. Out of the Universal Space due to the shifting of the parameters of space, emerged a new type of space which I call: Transitional Space(Martin van der Linden: Transition! in Paul Jackson, Reimi Suomi: e-Business and Workplace Design.). In Transitional Space the context and the process of construction become one, which allowed for an emphasis on the activities taking place inside this space.
