Abstract. It has been shown that, with space syntax, spatial configuration can be described as a set of lines covering all the areas of a layout and all the ways of moving around the one-dimensional and two-dimensional boundaries that it comprises. In this paper we propose alternative formal definitions of linear representations of spatial configuration and the ways in which they can be generated. The significance of these representations is discussed briefly.
