Have you ever wondered why the atrium that designs for a center of activities, communities or sharing space as courtyard at our school would end up by being a drum training area, and have some events once in awhile which have no activities as more than it expected? Can these calls an empty form? What happening is it might be missed point from designer first intention, but who knew what it is when we are user and we have own decision.
As human, we are dork that can’t be explained by a reason and always have mysteries in our own way and some mystery should not be explode so much. The example is when we design community space; it has to contain with a lot of people, many stuffs and activities, so the supported area should be large and open wide to connect to other space the same as to connect to other people. Instate of invite people, these kind of space seems to push them off!! Why is something happen opposite from what we want? Like designer drive a design by a good process and result so that the work should be succeed, but at the end some designs are just space where is no us
er. There must be missed some part of space psychology and context, or use them a wrong way.
Have you ever been swimming in the sea and do feel uncertainly, get cold, feel bad, and get pressure for some reason. Because around you are all water, an endless sea that can connected together around the world, then while you think about it you are going to lose yourself, it does not mean that you lose your mind, but you lose control and feel unsaved that you are percept from the space. However it doesn’t happen only stay in horizontal plane area, also happen in vertical one. Such as between the high-rise building with a high void-opening and the normal storey height one, it’s strange that you feel afraid that roof going to fall down on you in the high volume when it’s takes a distance to make it, or you feel that it can easily be watching over by someone . In the other hand, in the normal space you feel secured while a thing takes a shorter time to fall down or even been watched than the first one. The benefit of taken the uncertainly psychology situation is suit for control in the space, such as in the panopticon building.

The Panopticon is a type of prison building designed by English philosopher and social theorist Jeremy Bentham in 1785. The concept of the design is to allow an observer to observe (-opticon) all (pan-) prisoners without the incarcerated being able to tell whether they are being watched, thereby conveying what one architect has called the "sentiment of an invisible omniscience." Bentham himself described the Panopticon as "a new mode of obtaining power of mind over mind, in a quantity hitherto without example."
Furthermore, the panopticon was not the first time taken the observation concept to the architecture, but in the sacred place seem to put it as the presentation of being watched that can be seen like it is a tradition.
From the first time people feel unsecured from being observed but being the production of the modern age makes people feel more anxiety that change the perspective about have to move your life just by your own. Moreover that, for some historical background can give some sick to people; at some wide opened spaces like a Red Square in Moscow, Tian An Men Square in Beijing, or even the Democracy Monument in Bangkok become a symbolic of depth dark bloody fighting historical places to their nations.
Are those factors related to anxiety condition happen to the people who use SoAD’s courtyard? Its must be another reason to support because after the school bring some bench and table in the space, it seem to invite people to use as it should again, but I guess that it won’t work in rainy season foresure.
All in all, there is no guarantee that space that we design is going to work in the end because the possibility is not all part of subset of what it is. The question is we control space or space control us? Though, they look the same but difference because of the result. As we intent to control the space and space continue to control people in some way, but reaction of people are difference depend on context, own historical background and space psychology. Like I told you before we are dork.
