THEORY & MATHEMATICSbeginner

Definition

A long passageway connecting rooms or spaces. Corridors are circulation elements that can be functional (narrow, minimal) or experiential (wide, lit, with views). Their design affects how people perceive and move through a building.

Example

The Guggenheim Museum's spiral corridor (1959) is not a mere passage but an integral part of the building's experience, ascending continuously as visitors view art.
