Abstract
This research experimentally analyzes the issue of Sociopetaloid of architecture space. Sociopetal represents spaces where
people come together or stay away from each other, and when they stay away from each other it is also called sociofugal.
The research methodology was primarily compiled by presenting a pattern with a theoretical standpoint regarding the
Sociopetaloid of space using hypothesis testing with a case study with the aid of polling, first on-site presence technique, then a
cognition map tool and a questionnaire.7 public spaces were selected amongst 3 distinguished independent the university of
science and technology(IUST) faculty buildings for the case study. The data underwent correlative analysis using the SPSS
statistical software and meaningful relations were determined between the variables affecting Sociopetaloid.
The following main results were achieved in this research:
• The psychological-social factors of users directly influenced the Sociopetaloid of the public architecture space and were
considered as an establisher.
• Physical-spatial factors influence Sociopetaloid. This influence has two types one with "direct affordance" and another with
"indirect affordance".
• Sociopetaloid of public space is achieved with proper synthesis of the spatial- physical elements of architecture and
psychological-social elements of users. This Sociopetaloid increases with a high synomorphy between the space physic and
interpersonal behaviors.
