Abstract
For centuries, the word 'space' always refers to a geometrical understanding of an empty area. But now the broaden interpretations of the word "space" has put the word into a more significant state in human lives. Space is perceived as a representation the universe that has a mythological value in human lives. Space become an inseparable entity especially while discussing about cultures and civilizations. One of the most interesting phenomenon is the existence of the empty space in many cultures including in Indonesian architecture. Empty space is an empty area surrounded by envelopes which can be building or walls of fence as boundaries. Living activities are held in these spaces so that it gives values and meanings. This paper tries to gathers the developing theories of space from the ancient to the modern and use them to profoundly understand the phenomenon of the empty spaces in Indonesian vernacular architecture. How can these spaces have the significance in their daily life? It is definitely not an operative question to request the flow of a process of now the space become significant. But it rather a semantical question to search meanings and values of those spaces in human life.
