Abstract

The paper explores the relationship between People and the architectural spaces they occupy; understanding the occupants'' impressions while meeting their surrounding environment. In the first place, the relation between human senses and architecture was studied, as the senses are the tools that relate people to the outer environment.  The study was then improved through studying the human personality, feelings and people''s impression not to be restricted only on sensations. The study then focuses on the awareness of architectural space using the philosophical field of Phenomenology. Any object, event or experience which a person can see, hear, touch, smell, taste, feel or understand is a focus for a phenomenological study. An analytical study was then directed in sensory parks, where different exercises are seen, from social skills to business. Parks are spaces where human contact and impressions about the architectural atmosphere could be studied with the goal of evaluating the effect of architectural attributes on the atmosphere feeling of the space. Finally, a brief summary was put about how to obtain harmony between people and their surrounding in an architectural space, and designing with a user centered approach. It was basically depending on two main issues to think about when designing with a user centered approach; senses and emotions. And from the consideration of user's senses and emotions in design, seven guide lines were obtained.
