Abstract
Analyses of model facilities and interpretative records provide the guidelines for the research methods on design process via the assessment of form, function and architectural context. The assessment is a useful source of information on the quality of usable space perception. Verification of the nature and quality of an architectural form via an interpretative image opens up new perspectives of its analysis. This paper presents the perception and visual thinking via the parameter guidelines to arrive at the right means of space creation. Sensory perception and the sensory assessment method can facilitate the way we define architecture and play a significant role in the scientific discourse, which shows the importance of multidisciplinary cooperation of designers and academics. Only then can the potential of interrelations going beyond standard solutions be harnessed to our advantage. The research is based on the selected scientific publications, author’s own experience and the case study.

Notes
- 1.
Erwin Panofsky (1892–1968), an art historian working in the 20th century, viewed as a co-creator of the iconology concept; developed the epistemological principle which has elevated art to the rank of objective knowledge on the condition that the iconological method is used. Its theoretical foundations were worked up in 1932 for the first time. E. Panofsky presented a three level model of art-historical understanding, which when modified has eventually made a long-term impact.

Joseph Beuys (1921–1986), a German artist, art theorist, educator, activist, social and political reformer. He created sculptures and drawings, only to incorporate in them the later coined concept of supremacy of thought over an object (the 1940s and 1950s). In his works he used quickly perishable materials: oil, honey, felt, objects of daily use; he developed the theory of sculpture, structured as the transition from chaos to order and the theory of social sculpture. He was of the opinion that man shapes his environment by participating in historical events and being his life’s artist. Sculpture was meant to have a therapeutic effect.
