Sumario:This article aims to analyse the design of university educational spaces in relation to learning through the body in movement. It presents a qualitative study in which a total of 54 students from the teaching degree program at University of Girona were involved. The structured interview was used as the instrument of data collection, thus allowing us to identify the students' perception of the spaces in the faculty where they study in relation to learning in movement. The data analysis was in two phases: a first phase with a thematisation of the results obtained, followed by a second phase of creative cartography. The results provide new knowledge and pose questions as to how students perceive the spaces in the university in terms of promoting learning in movement, as well as what kinds of spaces would respond to this better. Moreover, the present study shows the importance of including architectural dimensions, along with students' voices in research
