Space is a concept that has been dominating architectural theory for a long time. This paper discusses the position of space in architectural theory and aims to clarify its role that fails to comprehend the multiple domains in which time is unfolding. After discussing the volumetric and social notions of the term “space”, the paper states that historically, architecture misuses the term and creates a schism between these two aspects of space. Furthermore, architectural responses to emerging discussions of spatiality continue to structure their perspectives around the volumetric notion of space that is based on the primacy of the moving body. The paper diagnoses this condition as an indicator of dominant architectural ideology that fuels the rift between the production and reception of architecture: architects design “spaces” but people live in complex space-times. The constructed notion of (space) time as opposed to neutral space and time has a potential to conceptualize architecture without prioritizing volumes over social or environmental domains. In that light, this paper concludes with a statement that territory is the strongest candidate to replace space in architectural thinking as it allows inclusive interpretations of architecture and the Earth and offers overarching ways to conceptualize human and nonhuman ecologies.
