Architectural Body Apartment Hunting

Screen Shot 2015-06-03 at 9.04.06 PMAssignment: ARCHITECTURAL BODY RENTAL ADVISER

 

Imagine your chosen (and already partly diagrammed)  space is being advertised on a commercial apartment rental website, such as the popular (in Germany) Immobilienscout25.de or, (random US example) apartmentguide.com

Complete your body-based analysis of your space with a detailed evaluation of the space from the body’s perspective. Focus not just on the shape and volume of the space for the body, but on significant FEATURES in the body’s experience of the space: based on a person’s possible INTENTIONS (intended actions) in that space, how ATTENTION is directed in the context of carrying out those intentions, and on the MOVEMENTS the body makes or wants to make in carrying out those intentions in that space.

What details/features/measurements would you use to compare and differentiate spaces systematically. What views/diagrams would you include to give a user (in this case an apartment hunter) sufficient information for evaluating what this selected space would and would not provide for the body.
