Abstract

The object of life is the person with realistic needs and transcendence, which means the good life essentially begins and connotes the beauty of living space. This paper analyzes the value of living space from the perspective of better life, by means of modern theory of space, and reveals that the beauty of living space does not only lie on its material basis for human existence, but also constitute the origin and origin of life. At the same time, it shapes the sense of identity and belonging of human beings to home, homeland and to the country in a unique way. Moreover, on the level of transcendence, human beings permeate their own understanding of the world, hopes and beliefs, the relationship between man and the world, and the pursuit of lofty and eternal in the construction activities, and getting the most amazing presentation and expression through the form of architecture. Therefore, the good life is based on the satisfaction of the living space, the attribution of the living space is the value appeal, and the transcendental connotation of the living space is the ultimate goal, all of which constitute the three value dimensions of the living space.
