Abstract

Every space has its own atmosphere. This atmosphere consists of elements that stimulate a person's various senses, and the person slowly feels the collection of these elements and recognizes them as the atmosphere of space. This study focuses on what elements make up this atmosphere, how they approach and influence people, and how they will be applied to create space. In addition, it raises the question of ‘Does the atmosphere remain the same when a particular atmosphere is moved to another place and recreated as it is?’. To address this, this project sets up a space and analyses the features by studying the elements that make up the atmosphere of that space. It then creates a new atmosphere by looking for a new place to place such elements. In this process, the space that had its own atmosphere, the place to newly deploy, and the appropriate program are determined. Therefore, based on an understanding of atmosphere, this study explores how the atmosphere affects the formation of space, what kind of building “migration of atmosphere” might be, and furthermore, how this atmosphere of new building makes relationship to the surrounding environment and how it affects society.
