Can you exactly define "space" in architectural way?
This is mine:
"Space is something that we can shap as user activities and needs with a support of their equipment."
You see if we mean a complete definition we have to put user factor such as user activities, user needs, user comfort. |

Space is NY is the amount of it Given to large buildings.
A good book to read about it is The Poetry of Space which isn't about NY
but about places in homes that define the human condition amongst shelter which we call a house or more commonly refered to as space. |

I would say...
"Space" is an area that can be dynamically molded to meet both functional and aesthetic needs in time.

| This is not good question. Space is perceived differently by different people so i think there is no definition. This is a matter of human senses. |

I think that, as ricky said Space is perceived differently by different people.
From an architectural point of view:
A physical space (an area) which serves human beings is looked at:
how a space is defined (eg: projected,recessed,over head, texture, color)
how a space is articulated
orientation
scale
proportions
topography
geography
overall a space is defined accordingly..

Regarding some type of concept of space, there was also a discussion in these forums on this topic which can be found by going back quite some time ago to a few links contained on this page:
HUMAN SPACE part ll
http://fireside.DesignCommunity.com/topic-15239.html
It seems some unique views on space are presented there.
(Note: There are also some interesting topics going on in the fireside forum.)
