ANALYSIS OF DEVELOPMENT OF ARCHITECTURAL BRIEF AND SPATIAL CONFIGURATION FOR MAGGIE’S CANCER CARING CENTRES

This study conducted an analysis of the Architectural Briefs, spatial configurations, and their relevance for Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centres. It initially clarified the content and development of the requirements from the founder’s manifesto in 1995, focusing on the 2009 and 2015 briefs. Then, we applied these requirements to floor plans of 25 built centres. Using Space Syntax theory, it depicted how spaces, centered around the kitchen, were perceived, and by applying Westin's Privacy Theory, it represented the privacy emphasized in each centre. Finally, the research revealed how actual architectural configurations corresponded to changes in the architectural briefs.
