4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the controller controls to display the at least one content-related information included in the category corresponding to the selected space as the GUI in the form of the polyhedron.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the controller controls to display a guide

GUI which guides an operation state of the GUI according to a predetermined event.

6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the guide GUI is an animation user interface (UI) in which a symbolic shape of the GUI rotates.

7. The display apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the controller controls to display a user authentication screen, and display differently at least one of category information and the at least one content-related information included in each category according to user information which is input through the user authentication screen.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the different category comprises at least

one of a category of watching television (TV) in real time, a category based on video on demand (VOD) content, a category based on sharing of Simple Notification Service (SNS) content, a category of providing an application, and a category of personal content.

9. A method of providing a user interface (UI) screen of a display apparatus, the method comprising:

displaying a rotatable Graphic User Interface (GUI) which has a plurality of spaces in a form of a polyhedron, each of the plurality of spaces corresponding to a different information category;

receiving a user interaction for the GUI; and

when one of the plurality of spaces in the form of the polyhedron is selected, according to the received user interaction, displaying the selected space as a main space, and displaying at least one content-related information included in a category corresponding to the selected space wherein

the rotatable GUI comprises a path area disposed in a center of the GUI, and the plurality of spaces, each in a form of a cube, are connected to each other surrounding the path area, and spaced apart from each other.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the rotatable GUI comprises at least one icon which represents the at least one content-related information included in the category corresponding to the plurality of spaces in the form of the polyhedron respectively.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

displaying a plurality of screens on a first area of a main screen of the display apparatus, and the rotatable GUI on a second area of the main screen according to a predetermined event; and

when at least one icon included in the GUI is selected, playing back a content corresponding to the selected icon on one of the plurality of screens.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the displaying comprises displaying at least one content-related information included in the category corresponding to the selected space as the GUI in the form of the polyhedron.

13. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

displaying a guide GUI which guides an operation state of the GUI according to a predetermined event.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the guide GUI is an animation user interface (UI) in which a symbolic shape of the GUI rotates.

15. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

displaying a user authentication screen,

and the displaying comprises displaying differently at least one of category information and the at least one content-related information included in each category according to user information which is input through the user authentication screen.

16. The method of claim 9 , wherein the different category comprises at least one of a category of watching television (TV) in real time, a category based on video on demand (VOD) content, a category based on sharing of Simple Notification Service (SNS) content, a category of providing an application, and a category of personal content.

17. A method of providing a UI screen of a display apparatus, the method comprising:

displaying a rotatable Graphical User Interface (GUI) which has a plurality of spaces in a form of a polyhedron,

wherein each of the plurality of spaces comprises a first wall, a second wall and a third wall,

wherein each of the plurality of spaces corresponds to a different category of information and,

wherein the rotatable GUI comprises a path area disposed in a center of the GUI, and the plurality of spaces, each in a form of a cube, are connected to each other surrounding the path area, and spaced apart from each other.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the polyhedron is star-shaped.

19. The method of claim 17 , wherein the categories of information comprises at least one of real-time television (TV) shows, video on demand (VOD) content, Simple Notification Service (SNS) content, an application, and personal content.
