This dissertation intends to, on one hand, understand how the human body perceives space and, on the other, comprehend in which way space can respond to the individual's needs. The object of this study will be the living space, the space in which the body will relate to more intimately. Aside from physical shelter, human beings look for psychological and emotional satisfaction during the period in which they inhabit a space, so it is extremely important to understand the set of spatial factors that direct the body towards an harmonious or indifferent relation with the space. In its turn, space has certain aspects that will allow a whole adaptation of the body or that, otherwise, will cause resistance in that sense. The analysis of space will be carried out evoking housing projects that have aroused personal interest and focusing on the body as the agent that experiences the space. A concern with the body's experience in the process of designing the space is present in the chosen case studies, and it will be important to realize how these experiences continue through the body's action, motivated by the language of space, or if they stagnate. In this way, an active attitude of the body towards the space in which it inhabits is sought, according to its will in mirroring the dimension of its interiority, and this determination can be accentuated throughout its life, given the unpredictability that occurs over time.
