This article makes these theories known to the general public, in an effort to stimulate discussion on them. It is also a chance to see how they have evolved from complicated analytical studies to a solid base of knowledge in close relation to the science of perception of the human eye. Historically this subject had been only considered from a medical point of view, involving professionals from the fields of psychology and ophthalmology, but the TK Theories transform this knowledge into analytical tools contributing to the design process. By establishing the relation between space and vision, the accurate study of canonical proportions leads to the TK constant, which mathematically relates the Cone of Good Vision to the immediate three-dimensional space in front of the Person. In this way space becomes humanized, making it clear that the optical sensations and perception can be measured and quantified and are inter-related. And that is how the TK Theory and Positioning Laws work, stipulating and regulating in a hierarchy the whole set of situations, like the fact of being in or out of the space of Good Vision, recognizing the Blind Spots, or considering the transit between them as real and concrete experiences of which we can become conscious, and applying them to the architectural practice. Finally, the possibility of making a “Virtual Experience” of the Personal Space is offered through the following web page: https://www.espaistk.eu. Keywords: architecture, visual proportions, architectural design, design. Las Teorías del Doctor Arquitecto Joaquim Lloveras se han concretado con una instalación organizada en el seno de la Universidad de Arquitectura de Barcelona. Con este artículo se pretende hacer objeto de divulgación unas teorías que a lo largo de muchos años de estudio han pasado de ser análisis exhaustivo teórico a cristalizarse en un corpus de conocimiento en estrecha relación con la ciencia de la percepción del ojo humano. Históricamente estos temas se han tratado desde un punto de vista estrictamente médico a través de profesionales de la oftalmología y psicología. Sin embargo, a través de la Teoría TK estos conocimientos se convierten en herramientas de análisis que contribuyen al proceso proyectual. Relacionando la visión con el espacio, a partir de estudios de cánones proporcionales se llega a una constante TK que fundamenta los vínculos del Cono de la Buena Visión y el espacio tridimensional frente a la Persona. De este modo se humaniza el espacio, poniendo en evidencia que la percepción y las sensaciones ópticas son medibles, cuantificables y se interrelacionan. Precisamente de ello trata la Teoría TK y las Leyes de Posicionamiento, donde se estipula y se jerarquiza todo el repertorio de situaciones, como serían estar dentro o fuera del espacio de la Buena Visión, reconocer los Puntos Ciegos, considerando el tránsito entre unas y otras como experiencias reales de las que podemos tomar consciencia y utilizar en la práctica arquitectónica. Finalmente, se ofrece la posibilidad de realizar una “Experiencia Virtual” del Espacio Personal mediante conexión con la página web: https://www.espaistk.eu. Palabras clave: arquitectura, proporciones visuales, proyecto arquitectónico, diseño.

description The Theories of Doctor Architect Kim Lloveras have finally been brought to practical reality in an installation that took place in the Architecture School of Barcelona.
