The Relationship of the Space and the Sacred

Abstract

The word sacred brings to mind, a space that is holy and religious. Although in the current generation, sacred is not just about the holy and religious but more about the mental peace of the mind. A sacred space thrives to answer questions we cannot find in our normal lives. Some religious post positivist believe the scared sometimes cannot always be generalized as sacred by everyone. The idea that what is sacred is only unique and calls upon oneself under individualism. But in some way, through religious positivism maybe there is something, an element, a hierarchy, a sense of repetitious, a symbol that can produce a sense of sacredness. The answer of such arguments, may only be revealed by inductive reasoning with some type of simulation. The simulation of a designed enclosed space, where the user has no knowledge of the typology of the building, and tested to see how they feel in the space.
