Abstract
Directing the perceiver by space – influence of the spatial environment on a human being, with simultaneous intensification of anthropogenic aspects in the state of the development of this environment (whose quality is unsatisfactory) entails a necessity for professional space directing. Professional directing, that is defining the qualities of urbanistic and architectural space with the use of knowledge, experience, and intuition, concerning both the object of action (space) and this subject (human being) and consciously affecting the quality of the influence of this space on the user, on its perfecting, which would be favourable for the human being. The key to the auteur's attitude, space directing, is then the analysis of the "object in the process". Space directing examines the specific object which architecture constitutes in the process of its manifold relations with human being: perception (by), influence (on), exploitation (by). Space directing examines those predicted relations object-human being in the whole process of creation of the object (its designing and accomplishment) and in the process of modification of the object during its long-term exploitation. Space directing is designing of the relations space – human being in the freely predicted "theatre of everyday life", the dynamic process of exploitation of the architectural and urbanistic space: an object beautiful in intention, durable, understandable. The intention behind the reflections herein is to demonstrate the usefulness of actions in relation to the urbanistic and architectural space derived from "theatrical laboratory" of the director's procedure - in the director's way of thinking in the process of creation; thinking in terms of predicting the reactions of the users during interaction with space and inspiring them through selection and gradation of media employed out of the whole, simultaneously examined matter available to the space director, so as to make those reactions, stemming from the way of "interpreting" the space come into being; in the director's superiority in the investment process concerning the subject matter of managing the work; this enlargement of the role and competences of the architect, from the role of the author-designer to the role of the author-director of the whole work, during its creation and during its modification all through the time of its exploitation, since consistent creative activity, namely the author-director's intellectual ability to create a synthesis of circumstances, improves the chances for a coherent (i.e. improving, not reducing the quality) accomplishment and possible further evolution of the work.
