An Investigation of Spatial and Visual Analysis in An Agraharam House Using Space Syntax Tool

India, the cradle of many cultures and traditions, houses many of the world’s oldest, most complex, and diverse civilizations. These cultures and traditional practices play an essential role in shaping our towns. Since prehistoric times, culture and architecture have been intertwined so that man can establish his originality and style within his group. This study aims to present a multimodal reading within the many spatial and visual scales found in the traditional houses in an Agraharam of Kurukuthurai, Tirunelveli. Many traditional settlements are successful in maintaining their social and architectural outline. One of these communities, which is intended with the abovementioned aspects, is this Agraharam settlement. The priestly sector of south Indian society, known as Brahmins, lives in a town known as Agraharam, which is located around the temples. This home reacts to local climatic requirements, cultures, and religious beliefs while balancing sensory experiences that improve daily life. The research applies a three-stage methodology: first, a spatial analysis based on direct observation to document the physical layout, activity mapping, and spatial hierarchy; second, a qualitative analysis using D.K. Ching’s principles to examine spatial volumes, defining elements, and relationships; and third, a quantitative analysis using space syntax tools (Depth-map X and Agraph) to perform visual analysis, node analysis, and isovist analysis across three Agraharam houses.
