Space Programming

Space programming involves identifying user needs and requirements to determine the optimal amount and type of space, equipment, and furniture needed. It is part of the pre-development phase of a building project and includes research and decision making to define the scope of work. Key aspects of programming include determining total net and gross building area requirements, performing adjacency analysis to describe relationships between spaces, and conducting current condition analysis.

SPACE AND FORM – User

Requirements
The first step in any space delivery project is to
define the requirements of the occupants
—a process called space programming or
architectural programming.
Space programming includes identifying
problems and needs, then providing the right
amount and type of space, equipment, and
furniture needed to function efficiently.
• Architectural programming is part of the
pre-development phase of a building
project.

• It is the research and decision-making


process that brings together your list of
building wants and needs, ultimately
identifying the scope of work to be
designed.
