Abstract
Nowadays space is considered as a net of connections between different areas. The questions how to delineate its character and how it is possible to objectively compare two spaces is the matter under consideration. This was the reason for creating new theories about the structure of place. "Space syntax analysis" (SSA) or simply "Space Syntax" defines a number of theories and research areas devoted to the analysis of space configuration. Ongoing research and observations of the configuration of spatial settlements and human behaviour within in the past years showed a close relationship between the physical structure of space and the quality of life of its inhabitants. SSA is used as an academic and commercial tool to analyze projects in urban and building scale. It is a tool of sustainable development which allows studying movement of space users, crime in the city, anti-social behaviour, economics and viability of the service, transport or health behaviour.
