White-space between elements is a text node, and text nodes are rendered down to a single space by HTML rendering engines. That space will have a width and height corresponding to the font styling of the containing element, and if the containing element is the body or a descendent of the body, it will take up space on the page either horizontally or vertically, depending on whether it intervenes between block or inline elements, unless it inherits a font-size of zero.
