   1. Space planning is an in-depth analysis of how physical space is used in structures.
   2. Space planning helps ensure efficient use of floor space without wasting it
2. What data need to have for Space Planning?
   1. An architect needs to define the purpose of structures and spaces to best determine how they will be used.
      1. What is the purpose of the place?
         1. Some spaces might have more than one function, and they might need to be flexible
      2. Who will use the place?
         1. Buildings and the spaces in them are for people, after all, so the architect needs to answer some questions:
            1. Who will use the place?
            2. How will people spend their time in the building?
            3. How people will move through the spaces while doing their jobs

            6. Lighting and Ventilation
            7. Accessibility - making the space easy to use for people with disabilities
      3. How they will use this place?
         1. Analyze work flow and circulation, or how people will move through the spaces while doing their jobs
         2. How should the spaces be connected?
3. Outcome: Conducting space planning
   1. Architect needs to be aware of all the elements to come up with the best solution
   2. A drawing that identifies the needs and required elements of spaces
