“…By referring back to research in the field of housing space, it can be concluded that a certain number of studies relate to the historiographic analysis of the importance and role of the salon, as the secondary centre in the spatial organization in different time and spatial contexts (Kale, 2005;Seda Dazkır, 2013;Nasır, Öğüt, Gürel, 2015;Alfirević, Simonović Alfirević, 2017;etc.). The second group is made of papers dedicated to dimensional, functional or perceptive analysis of the gathering space (Gür, 2013;Cromley, 2004;Čanak, 1976;etc.). Significant research on this topic was carried out by Yugoslav architect Mate Bajlon, who emphasized the importance and the role of forming the secondary centre through the so-called Extended Circulation Area (Bajlon, 1972(Bajlon, , 1975(Bajlon, , 1979.…”

In a functional sense, the centre of the living space is a gathering area for its users and for visitors. In most cases, the living area has at least one space towards which its users gravitate daily or occasionally. In situations where there are two or more centres in the living area, their position, size and connection determine the character of the functional organization, and they result from the social needs of the users. This paper analyzes characteristic examples of how dwellings are organized with several gathering centres, drawing out three basic concepts: a) living space with centres grouped in a social zone, b) living space with a flexible centre on the boundary between zones and c) living space with a secondary centre in a private area. On the other hand, attention is drawn to the existence of different boundaries of territoriality (boundaries of ownership, hospitality and intimacy), which determine the domains of social, private and intimate zones in housing. Depending on whether the gathering centres are located on one side, on the other, or along the border of territoriality, the degree of intimacy of the living space also changes.

Lack of internal space is a problem in UK homes, and is often linked to a lack of space standards for housing in the UK. Although previous studies have examined new-build housing, this paper uses a new method to study 16 000 dwellings in the English Housing Survey (EHS) 2010 to examine existing housing and compare them with a modern space standard in an attempt to quantify the extent and magnitude of the problem. Dwellings in the survey were compared against a slightly modified version of the London Housing Design Guide 2010 internal space standard. It was found that between 21% and 55% of dwellings failed to meet the standard; and that flats and small terraced houses were most commonly below the standard. Dwellings were also frequently found to be under-occupied in comparison with the number of bedrooms. This research hypothesized that this was a result of the lack of space. To illustrate the use of this new analysis method, a recent change to the Housing Benefit system (colloquially known as the 'Bedroom Tax') has been considered. Households receiving Housing Benefit were more likely to be undersized, suggesting that the policy to withdraw housing benefits from these households may be misguided.

Çocuğun hayatı algılamaya başladığı ilk andan itibaren çevresindeki tüm koşullar gelişim sürecine etki eder. Özellikle çocuğun fizyolojik, psikolojik ve sosyolojik olarak çok yönlü olarak gelişimini destekleyen ve çocukluk döneminde karşılaşılan ilk mekân olan konut, yoğun ve etkin kullanılması nedeni ile ayrı bir öneme sahiptir. Çalışmada, 2-6 yaş dönemindeki çocukların konutu oyun için nasıl kullandığının ortaya koyulması amaçlanmıştır. Bunun için çocukların oyun türleri ile ilgili mekân tercihleri araştırılmıştır. Kapsam çocuğun konutu genel kullanımının yanında, konuttaki mekânlarının oyun türüne ile ilişkili kullanımı ve oyuna bağlı konutun yeterliliği çerçevesinde belirlenmiştir. 2-6 yaş arası çocuk sahibi olan ve Trabzon ilinde yaşayan 94 ebeveyne uygulanan anket ile veri toplanmıştır. SPSS programı ile verilerin genel yüzde dağılımları için frekans analizi ve karşılaştırmalar için ki-kare testi kullanılmıştır. Çocuğun evin her mekânını farklı oyun türleri için kullandığı fakat özel odaya sahip olanların öz gelişimleri için daha kaliteli faaliyetlerde bulunabildikleri, konuttaki oyun tercihini cinsiyet, yaş, özel oda varlığı, oda kullanım süresi ve biçiminin etkilediği, konutun oyun için yeterliliğinde oda sayısı ve gürültü konusunun ön plana çıktığı tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak konuttun tasarımında, kullanıcısı olan çocuğun gereksinimleri ve beklentileri öncelikli belirleyiciler arasında yer almalıdır.
