| description | This study introduces the basic concepts and terminologies regarding space syntax research
through a simple spatial configuration. The concepts are elaborated for intricate configurations.
This study aims to deepen the understanding of how syntactical analysis can extract social
information embedded in traditional architectural practice in the Malay Archipelago. The basic
terminologies are outlined, and the sequential procedure for analysis is described along with its
interpretation in the context of actual social phenomena. Result shows that the syntactical
properties of a particular configuration within a particular region reflect the traditions of the
people in that region. This study serves as a basis for the future study of the applications of
space syntax to diverse spatial configurations in the Malay Archipelago. |
