The interactive relationship between psychology and architecture is still being neglected when the possibilities potentially obtainable by perceiving and memorizing architectural forms and space are considered . The contemporary architects, or a part of them are well aware of these possibilities while designing their buildings, and it is of great interest to ascertain how professionals and ordinary people perceived and memorized buildings and sites through history. The paper presents certain psychological methods that could be very helpful in this research. One of those methods have The Gestalt principle is the initial method of one such method, because the memorizing process strongly relies on the concept of "crystallization" of a perceived event with the passage of time. Some examples, well known through building history have been analyzed and compared in order to demonstrate how the interaction between psychology and architectural forms and spaces.

FENOMEN OPAŽANJA I PAMĆENJA ISTORIJSKIH GRAĐEVINA I MESTA
Interaktivni odnos psihologije i arhitekture još uvek je zapostavljen kada se razmišlja o mogućnostima koja se mogu postići opažanjem i pamćenjem arhitektonskih formi i prostora. Savremeni arhitekti ili bar deo njih, su veoma svesni tih mogućnosti prilikom projektovanja svojih građevina, ali od velikog interesa je da se utvrdi kako su profesionalci i obični ljudi opažali i pamtili građevine i mesta kroz istoriju. U radu se prikazuju pojedine psihološke metode koje mogu biti od velike pomoći u ovom istraživanju. Jedna od tih metoda je princip Geštalta kao početne metode, zato jer je proces pamćenja snažno povezan sa konceptom "kristalizacije" opažajnog doživljaja prolazom vremena. Neki primeri, dobro poznati iz istorije građenja su analizovani i upoređeni kako bi se prikazala interakcija između psihologije i arhitektonske forme i prostora.
