Architecture as a Cognitive Space

Niharika J. Desai

Abstract: In simple terms, one's approach to a built space is its response to Architecture. This response comes merely by his or her cognitive thinking. The following write up clears one's deceptive ideas with context to architecture- It just being an edifice serving a function which could be built and demolished. Whereas the space he or she is actually in impacts the senses, mind and mood of the inhabitant serving a purpose to his/her life. Through various instances and theories, this paper is an attempt to prove that architecture needs cognitive thinking.
