The Space As is a documentation site about how interior-dominant environments shape perception and judgment before conscious decision-making occurs.
This is not a design blog. It is a vocabulary and framework for describing the conditions that quietly determine how people think, wait, and decide inside spaces.
How to read this site
Section titled “How to read this site”If you are new, start with Foundations to understand what “space as condition” means.
Then read Mechanisms to see how slow-acting influence accumulates over time through surfaces, light behavior, and visual load.
Finally, read Conditions to understand when continuation inside an environment is no longer neutral—when space begins to change the posture of judgment itself.
