How can sustainable architecture be described spatially? Is there any way of looking at sustainable architecture from a spatial perspective? This paper aims to explore whether a syntactical viewpoint would be an appropriate focus, and attempts to address how a configurational approach contributes to our understanding of sustainable architecture. To explore the possible theoretical framework in understanding sustainable architecture from a spatial perspective, three buildings (namely, Olympic House, SK Chemicals R&D, and the Epson Innovation Center), which are recognized as the most sustainable buildings by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design and Comprehensive Assessment System for Built Environment Efficiency, are selected and analyzed by using visibility graph analysis, a useful analytical tool in space syntax. The in-depth theoretical studies and literature reviews have suggested that the atria in sustainable architecture play a substantial role in maximizing energy efficiency, minimizing negative impacts on the environment, and generating spatial integration. Thus, it is concluded that sustainable architecture is economical in technological, environmental, and spatial ways as well.

This paper focuses on atria in built environment in order to identify what kind of spatial meanings and values we can find in atria, how we perceive them, and to what degree the architectural properties of the atria are correlated to social meanings. For this, four shopping centres (malls) located in London, UK, were selected, and an online survey questionnaire in terms of the affordance theory was carried out to get substantial ideas of how they work. Throughout an in-depth analysis and evaluation of empirical data, it can be argued that atria help us to draw a spatial structure; they afford revealing oneself to or concealing from others due to the positional priority; lead us to resting, standing or waiting along the atria’s edge; provide a clue for descending or ascending to other floors; afford making aware of activities and facilitating social behaviours; and give us useful information with regard to wayfinding. It is clear, therefore, that atria should be understood as not a separate or independent space but rather an integrated, co-dependent, and comprehensive space from the aspect of the overall spatial configuration.
