PSHYCHOLOGY OF SPACE : LEARNING SPACE
AIM:
Aims to explore the intricate relationship between interior spaces and human behavior, delving into the realm of environmental psychology. The objective is to decipher how the design and arrangement of interior spaces influence individuals' cognitive, emotional, and behavioral responses. It seeks to understand how spatial design influences cognitive processes, engagement levels, and student well-being. The goal is to provide evidence-based design principles for educators, architects, and policymakers to enhance learning spaces.
OBJECTIVE:
1.Analyze Architectural Impact:
Investigate how speci c architectural elements in classrooms in uence cognitive processes and engagement among students and educators.
2.Assess Well-being Factors:
Examine the impact of spatial design on the overall well -being of individuals in educational settings.
3.Identify E ective Design Strategies:
Identify and propose evidence-based design strategies that enhance the learning experience by creating environments conducive to optimal cognitive functioning and positive psychological states.
4.Understand User Perspectives:
Gather insights from both students through interviews and surveys to understand their perspectives on the in uence of architectural design on their learning experiences.
5.Provide Practical Recommendations:
O er practical recommendations for architects, educators, and policymakers to implement e ective spatial design strategies in classrooms and personal workspaces, fostering environments that support learning and well-being .
Limitation :
1. Study is subjective depends on preference of students.
2.Only general design guidelines will be generated in nal not designing speci c space.

WHY Learning environment (TCE) ?
-Learning environment is a active space
- Age group of users is restricted
-Same group of user occupy the spaces over time
- Psychology comfort impacts user due to regular use of same space
- Students involve in both physical and mental activity in same spaces

Architectural Space and Psychological Feelings

Introduction:
1. Architectural space affects the psychological feelings : Road -- Vessel of city Building -- Flesh of city and gigantic art
Eg : Suzhou Traditional Garden of China :
- Pleasant and happy at every part of garden
1.People’s feeling towards object is generated through stimulation which is the sense of organ’s reflection of individual attributes of objective matters
Function People experience of space
Stimulation
Sensation
Quieter/ Energetic
For city person when he comes to rural area he feels connected to nature , wheres not same for the resident of raural.
2. Change of space affects the psychological change
Infinite and shapeless
Space Time and space
Solid and volid
Location ,form, texture,...
Low transparency low purity,simple feel quite
High transparency high purity,rich feel quite
Conclusion:
Huge population city - less communication
- green building - enrich new content
Space art (feature) + people + artistic space = coexist and satisfaction

COMPARITIVE ANALYSIS - LECTURE HALLS
INFERENCE: COMPARITIVE ANALYSIS - LOBBY
M.Arch looby act as most social gathering space in department of architecture, TCE.
Because it has wide area of more then 200sqm,with flexible furniture like tire chair, Drafting table and also there access to electric board. There is lots of daylight incoming and jali and courtyard makes a good blend of view and cross ventilation. There is more than one entrance to the space and many space transition space. Also has facility of artificial lighting and fan.
As studio space MPH is considered as optimal standard for studio space. Because its opening is larger and has glass casement window and doors , wheres other studio has steel opaque window if close no visibility to exterior environment. The Mph has area of more than 200 sqm. Comparing other spaces this space is location and orientation helps to provide ample amount of lighting of avg. 300+ lux b/w 9:00 to 15:00 ,Also cross ventilation and no hinderence near window for air flow.
On lecture halls are consider B2 and B3 is barely ideal. But as presentation hall is considered lighting should be less but artificial lighting and windows opened condition should attain needs of 300 lux. Cross ventilation and thermal condition should be solved. In B2 and B3 has seating arrangement for 40 people. As per furniture is concerned single arm chair is more flexible,and comfortable than attached table chair.
Courtyards is not used on daily basis on during events and sometimes as transition space. As per results of quesstionaire there is need of shade and flexible furniture which is juxtaproximity to corridor. This helps in daily usage and area for outdoor learning space. In B.arch lobby entry coutyard providing near library may be useful or near to 80lec hall it may be used becaue only people use those spacce for waiting,also continuous dynamic activity occur there. In other two courtyard it is very much needed to enhance the interaction. Stage in courtyard 2 is used only during events not for simple fathering space.

Student feels comfortable in studio space . Also existing is 200 sq.m. there is also flexibility, but arangement of openings and furniture layouts.
Color and brightness of studio spaces are needed.
Existing scenrio B2 and B3 are the class room for 40 students that is only feel comfortable. But even though as per standards there can be a classroom for 80 people but not comfortable and flexible.
80 Lec and M1 has only 80 sqm
Only 50 sqm
46 no. of computer but as per standards 60 sqm
M.arch lobby and courtyard act as art court , also workshop room act as one of the kind
Multi purpose hall is around 220 sqm not big as recommened but as per students this space is the ideal studio.
Actually resource center should be varied from library but not there
Library is of 200 sqm but can’t hold comfortabily all students and also library dosen’t organised properly.
Submission and examination room is there only 20 sqm but students don’t consider them. Not accessible by students.
No such room is allocaed , they M.Arch lobby for such purpose.
One located on main campus not for department of architecture seperately.

SUMMARY OF STUDY :
This comprehensive research delved into the nuanced realm of students' attitudes towards indoor spaces within college campuses. Through a meticulous quasi-experimental approach, the study scrutinized various spaces including studios, lecture halls, and courtyards, aiming to decipher the factors underpinning students' comfort and satisfaction. Employing sophisticated techniques like space syntax analysis, the research unearthed insights into the layout and spatial dynamics of these areas. Furthermore, microclimate conditions were meticulously evaluated through simulations and readings, shedding light on their impact on students' experiences.
Observations of students' behaviors and preferences, coupled with data gleaned from questionnaires, provided invaluable insights into their needs and expectations. The findings underscored a noteworthy correlation between environmental conditions and space utilization patterns, highlighting the pivotal role of elements such as visual appeal and spatial configuration in shaping students' interactions with indoor spaces.
Ultimately, the research sought to establish practical guidelines for the design of more conducive indoor environments within college campuses. By bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical implementation, this study aimed to enhance the quality of indoor spaces and foster an environment conducive to learning and holistic development.
