The Workshop In September 2006, a one-day workshop took place that formed an opening session of the Spatial Cognition ’06 Conference, and was held in Bremen, Germany. The theme of this workshop was space syntax and spatial cognition and it represented the culmination of an idea first mooted at the Spatial Cognition ’04 conference (Frauenchiemsee, Germany) and furthered developed by discussions at the Fifth International Space Syntax Symposium in Delft, 2005. The significance of this workshop was, at one level, personal: for some time researchers into space syntax at University College London and into spatial cognition at the Transregional Collaborative Research Center SFB/TR 8 Spatial Cognition (Universities of Bremen and Freiburg) had been seeking ways to initiate an interdisciplinary collaboration. Such an opportunity, as this workshop represented, to bring together the two wider research communities formed a vital strand of this ambition: our expectations, however, were perhaps more modest – we were simply planning a day of interesting discussions and debates in order to establish an agenda for any future collaboration.
