General Theses on Space-Contributions for the future science of space

People have always thought about space. People have always developed and arranged space according to their needs. Space is the constant theme in philosophical and theoretical systems. Integrally defined space, understood comprehensively, complexly, and universally, is the subject matter of research by numerous and different sciences, theories, and disciplines. The four themes that are reviewed in this paper are: Man and space, Principle of polarity and the theory of space, Totality and synthesis, Nature and technics. We encounter the idea to form an integral Science of Architectural Space with numerous theoreticians of space and philosophers. It is possible to define the Science of Space in a number of ways - as the science about man from the aspect of space, as spatial anthropology, as the science about space from the aspect of universal human needs, etc. Possible objectives and tasks of the Science of Space would be to contribute to the clarification of general issues concerning the relationship between man and space, a better understanding of relations between man and living ambiance, understanding of complex relationships between man and city, man and architecture, etc.
