About This Course

This course explores the role of “in-between spaces” in urban environments—transitional areas between public and private zones that foster social interaction and community cohesion. Based on historical analysis, learners will study how these spaces, including courtyards, galleries, and transitional zones, enable casual interactions, provide comfort, and serve as community anchors. The course emphasizes creating spaces that reflect local culture, promote inclusivity, and support diverse user needs. Through case studies and design frameworks, participants will gain insights into how these spaces bridge urban and residential environments, supporting a sustainable and socially vibrant city fabric.

  • Defining In-Between Spaces: Understand the characteristics and benefits of in-between spaces.
  • Historical Evolution: Trace the development of transitional spaces from ancient to modern times.
  • Social and Cultural Significance: Explore how these spaces support diverse community needs and inclusivity.
