At the moment, the issue of forming and maintaining the physical and mental health of the population of Ukraine is more relevant than ever. The system of physical education in educational institutions is considered as one of the ways to promote physical culture and sports, as well as to form a healthy lifestyle among the population. However, it is possible to identify two main shortcomings of domestic SCs of higher education institutions, namely: the inconsistency of the existing range of premises and sports spaces with modern needs and the low motivational capacity of the architectural and spatial component of the sports environment of higher education institutions. Thus, we face the issue of forming a motivationally capable environment of the SC of HEIs, which would allow us to increase the interest of young people in physical culture and sports. It should be borne in mind that the work of perception is apperceptive (adding to the perceived) and is mainly determined by the subject's own and borrowed experience. The perception of the architectural (artificial) environment is not reduced to visual assessment, but is formed in relation to the functional content and human needs in the environment of a certain purpose. The functional aspect involves ensuring that the nomenclature of structural elements of the AC of a higher education institution meets the requirements of the training process and a certain level of comfort. The aesthetic aspect involves the analysis of morphological features of the environment in terms of compositional and artistic requirements. The semantic aspect of the formation of the environment of the SC of the HEI involves the analysis of functional and morphological features of the spatial organisation in terms of their semantic significance. The semantics of architecture is defined as sign mental formations embodied in specific forms, due to which the four main functions of the system of meanings are realised: orientation - search and finding of signals; interpretation - separation of signals (content, features) and identification of relations between them; identification of signals - establishing the identity of semantic values; recognition - comparison of the received signals with the system of standards (features) with further decoding of input data. Semantics of form - involves the expression of the embedded ideas and information by means of architectural and compositional expressiveness and the form of the object. Visual accessibility of the training process -provides free access to the visual perception of the functional process of a part of the sports spacesof the complex by unexpected spectators and visitors. Sports symbols - filling the environment withsports symbols is another effective means of informing visitors and casual spectators about thefunctional component of the complex and its focus on sports. The harmonious integration of sportssymbols into the architectural and artistic solution will increase both the information content of theenvironment and its attractiveness. The use of architectural semantics in the formation of thearchitectural environment of the SC of a higher education institution will increase its motivationalcapacity, which will positively affect the process of physical education and the promotion of sportsand a healthy lifestyle.
