As a standard to recognize the commonness and uniqueness among East Asian housing culture, this paper compares the sense of boundary between inside and outside space among traditional residence in Korea, China, and Japan. The purpose of this paper is to extract the spatial characteristics supporting its own vernacular system and to analyze the tendency how to perceive the space and the boundary in a different way. As a case study, the following housing types are selected and analyzed; Houses of 'Sadaebuga(士大夫家)' in Joseon dynasty of Korea, 'Shoin-style House(書院造)' in the period of Edo in Japan and 'Siheyuan(四合院)' in the Chiang period of China. To deal with the issue of inside and outside space, semi-void space which has the intermediate functions is critical in terms of defining the boundary of spatial compositions. Each representative precedent in three countries has particular semi-void space in the diverse of shape and size. Semi-void space provides the clue to trace the way how to people perceive the sense of boundary in the middle of solid and void groups. The sizes, the positions and the functions of the semi-void space integrate overall spatial atmosphere according to the genetic prototypes that each case has developed. Each three housing type shows various degree of visual privacy and enclosure, overlapping view and interlocking spatial experience. Unspecified or blurred boundary severed to generate various visual connections determines the perceives size, and the number of overlapped layer in space. Accordingly, this study precedently review the meaning of inside and outside in the east Asia residence and analyze space attribute in the idea of boundary crossed in the residence of three counties. These analysis is focused on extracting inherent pattern at boundary crossed and duplicated in the residence, where inside space and outside space have different layout and different size in the example.
