In the last twenty–five years, some studies have been analyzing the virtual reality potential for special education. They show the virtual environments as a valid communicative medium and a safe space where ASD people can experience new situations without limits of ‘in vivo’ experiences. Often, prob-lems with space can complicate many aspects of everyday life. Referring to Hermelin and O’Connor’s studies, the difficulties involving the autistic clinical frame are connected especially to perception deficiency, therefore the VR can become valid support, for people with ASD, improving relationships with space, with ourselves and with others. My study tries to provide a guideline tool for a human–centered VR design.
