A discussion to support the spatial design process: Heidegger and Sloterdijk

In the framework of this research, the discipline of philosophy has been found valuable for constituting a different form of understanding and forming the basis of the thinking system. For this reason, if the architectural design process generally proceeds through a thought-based concept and philosophy is one of the most important disciplines referred to by architecture, it is thought that the discipline of philosophy can be supportive in producing concepts that can contribute to spatial design. In this context, the concept of space has been discussed, considering the path it has followed in its philosophical past and the spatial transformation it has undergone. Then, a two-pronged discussion on the spatial approaches of the contemporary philosophers Martin Heidegger and Peter Sloterdijk was generated to support the design process by producing ontological-based concepts that can reveal new ideas about the perception of space. As a result of this study, it was seen that the production of the meaning of space has always taken place through the previously expressed thoughts and diversification of the concepts used in the spatial design together with the differentiating ideas can bring a different perspective to design. Fourteen new concepts, which are entity-centric, plurality, coexistence, life-in-between-of-life, womb space, resonance space, bubble space, bipolarity, intimacy, self-disclosure, intertwinement, architectural foam, immune-spheric and human sphere, were produced to support the architectural design process as a result of the discussion.
