This research investigates the condition of unbuilt spaces in urban areas that reside in the interim between previous use and not-yet-decided new development. These unbuilt spaces are considered as valuable in the context of urban landscape. In order to acknowledge the character and quality of unbuilt spaces, design and planning procedures need to incorporate new interpretative techniques. The proposed NSA method integrates three research-by-design techniques that enable landscape researchers/designers to broaden the scope of disciplinary research practice. The conducted research is interdisciplinary and stands in the intersection of two research fields in the context of scale—urban planning and architectural design. The aim of this research is to propose the new methodological apparatus, which offers a holistic view on the notion of territory in regard to the notion of scale. The analysis takes the position that small-scale architectural design procedures and methods also apply to the scale of the landscape—territory. The proposed method—Narrative Spatial Analytics (NSA)—is based on simultaneous design procedures in opposing scales, assuming the overall significance of simultaneous understanding of the territory and the site.

这项研究调查了居住在先前使用和尚未确定的新开发项目之间的过渡时期中的城市未建空间的状况。这些未建空间在城市景观中被认为是有价值的。为了确认未建成空间的特征和质量，设计和规划程序需要采用新的解释技术。提议的NSA方法整合了三种按设计进行研究的技术，这些技术使景观研究人员/设计人员能够扩大学科研究实践的范围。所进行的研究是跨学科的，并且在规模范围内处于城市规划和建筑设计这两个研究领域的交汇处。这项研究的目的是提出一种新的方法论工具，它从规模的概念上对地域的概念提供了整体的看法。分析的立场是，小规模的建筑设计程序和方法也适用于景观-领土的规模。拟议的方法-叙事空间分析（NSA）-基于相反规模的同时设计程序，假设同时了解领土和地点具有总体意义。
