Abstract

After the recent crisis that humanity faced, which is the Corona pandemic, it was necessary to pay attention to the means that give meaning to internal spaces and express human identity and requirements. The research paper discusses the third space in architecture as an inter-expressive space that combines two functions and its transformation into the concept of the third place and how this concept is reflected in the interior spaces in addition to the contribution of spaces in supporting social interaction as a basic need of its needs. In order to understand the third space, it was necessary to explore the theoretical frameworks on the topic, how it contributes to supporting the interior space, and what are the means to achieve the third space in architecture and interior design in particular, through discussing a number of descriptive projects elected for the purpose of clarifying the theoretical frameworks that contributed to shaping the concept at the level Interior design and architecture of interior spaces.
