Citizens' needs for urban green spaces are on the rise due to improved quality of life and increased interest in environments. The garden is noteworthy because it is small in size, making it less controversial to create in the city, and it is adjacent to the residential area, improving citizens' daily environment. Moreover, recently gardens is attracting attention as a tool for urban regeneration, such as being created in declining areas as part of a government project. Therefore, it is time to study the role and value of urban gardens in deteriorated areas in terms of space welfare. However, there are few studies that quantitatively evaluate the effects of gardens, and many prior studies are limited to focusing the green space larger than a certain size (e.g., parks and forests). Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the effect of garden and gardening quantitatively, paying attention to social aspects such as life satisfaction and community of inhabitants. The study was conducted in an old row housing complex in Gojan1-dong, Ansan-si, Gyeonggi-do. In there, some of the dwellers voluntarily created outdoor gardens and engaged in gardening for a long time. In addition, after the 2017 Gyeonggi-do Garden Fair, several gardens have been maintained and used by residents there. For the first step, the field trip was done to research the status of the garden in the area, and then, a survey was conducted on whether or not gardening has an impact on the life satisfaction and community of residents. The results were analyzed by t-test and ANOVA. As a result, residents who are engaged in gardening are more active in the "neighborhood exchange" and "resident participation" than those who are not engaged in gardening. In addition, if residents voluntarily create a garden, the level of "satisfaction of life" is higher than those staying in the garden which is constructed by the government. And a resident who is gardening in the complex shows higher life satisfaction than those who garden outside of the complex. These results confirmed that the garden has positive effects promoting "exchanges with neighbors", "participation in the community", and "life satisfaction" of residents. It shows that it is important to ensure the right of residents to participate in the garden-making process as much as possible, and the garden's location should be paid attention to maximize the positive effect of gardens.

The present urban redevelopment has caused many problems. The truth is that the improvement of residential environment in this country has resulted in high-rise apartment buildings of the same form, without regard for vestiges of previous residents and regional characteristics. If redevelopment should be continued in a proper way to improve the right to adequate housing, a new form of urban design will be required, solving existing problems. For this, the cultural and ecological elements of the redevelopment site to be conserved and developed should be found and designed. Consequently, this study focuses on the cases of domestic and overseas urban design that cultural and ecological elements have been applied to redevelopment, and suggests Hwamyeong-dong, a deteriorated area in Busan, to design from a cultural and ecological point of view.

This study starts from the architectural and urban interest to integrate the daily life and behavior of residents in the city of Seongnam and to sustain the community. A fixed abode is something that can not be separated from the place and should be approached from a comprehensive perspective reflecting the physical and social conditions of the region. Although residential neighborhoods have a residential walking range, which has a steep slope, it has been formed in the suburbs of the residential area where commercial facilities are activated organically. The humanities and social organizations of the residents are integrated with the physical space and act as constituent factors of major cities. This is an attempt to suggest improvement and activation of existing cities based on their daily lives, rather than destroying cities and creating new ones. Also, it is proposed to 'Neighborhood Street' as an indicator of a uniform urban renewal plan for existing urban regeneration projects. Based on the definition of the city of living in the city, the center of the city will be located in the center of the city, and it will be the center of the city's bustling streets.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the changes in the housing instability of low-income households through their residential mobility. The concept of housing instability is measured by taking into consideration of housing types, number of moves, period of homelessness, and housing affordability index. The result of this study shows that housing instability of low-income households owned their homes is mainly caused from their old housing built in at least 1980, and that of tenant households is due to the heavy burden of rent-to-income ratio. By using multinominal logit model, the study finds that low-income tenant households are more likely to move upwards as they are man-headed, aged and relatively high-income if we categorize residential mobility into four types: upwards, equivalent, trade-off, and downwards migration. Considering that the share of homeowners moving downwards increases while the share of tenants moving upwards decreases as they reside increasingly nearby Seoul, the study finds that low-income households living in big cities are no better off to improve their residential instability for themselves than the low-incomes in local small and midium cities. Furthermore, both low-income owners and tenants are less likely to move downwards as the ratio of single-family housing in former residence increases. Such finding has a policy implication that government needs to maintain affordable single-family housing stock rather than supplying excessive unaffordable multi-family housing in order to enhance residential instability of low-incomes households.

In this study, main focus was analyzing whether the retired middle-aged people's life style and personal characteristics affect house selection attributes and there are any differences according to their life styles. The finding and implications of this study were as follows. The middle-aged people were trying to pursue leisurely and healthy life. Therefore, they prefer the high service quality of health, medical facilities, culture, leisure, and entertainment facilities. These trends were caused by the expansion of the five-days working styles, the improvements of the smart consumptions, the high levels of the education, and the high social and economic participations of the females. The overall changes in social, cultural, economical circumstances made them different from other generations. Also current middle-aged people were more challenging and active and they thought themselves young compared with the people of the older generation. In the future those middle-aged people's life style will be more diversified. Therefore new housing plans are necessary for the middle-aged popple to satisfy their diverse housing needs and housing circumstances. Based on the results of this study for the middle-aged people's life style and housing selection attributes after their retirement, more studies are necessary in new and different views. Furthermore diverse house supplies, housing marketing, housing policies should be provided for the middle-aged people for their retirement and need to study more their future housing satisfaction and their housing needs.

China's urban regeneration, which has been focused on economic growth since the 1950's, has brought about the uniformity of cities. In order to improve on this, the urban regeneration policy has been transformed into a cultural city resource, which is promoting urban regeneration while utilizing the cultural characteristics of each region. However, the specific application methods are still lacking. In this study, I attempt to modify the apartment environment of the city, Hanan-sung, based on the pattern-language of Christopher Alexander, a space planning tool that can be used in urban regeneration. First, 23 patterns were chosen from the primary pattern-language. Next, I investigated the characteristics of the traditional housing culture of Hanan-sung through the literature review, surveyed the opinions of current apartment residents, and summarized the requirements. Finally, a new pattern-language was developed for the regeneration of the old apartments from the viewpoint of the culture, by modifying it according to the characteristics and requirements of housing culture of Hanan-sung which summarizes 23 pattern-languages.

오늘날 우리사회는 환경변화와 기후 위기 가속화로 인하여 삶의 질 악화는 물론 인류 생존까지도 걱정해야 시기에 이르렀는데, 이러한 변화의 주범인 온실가스의 75%가 도시에서 발생되고 있다(Global Sustainable Development Repor, 2019), 이에 국제 사회는 도시 중심의 녹색 전환 정책 추진 중인데, 우리나라는 2017년부터 '도시재생뉴딜사업'을 추진하고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 지자체가 주도적으로 환경성과 창출 방안을 마련, 도시의 지속가능성 높이는데 일조하고자 탄소중립 선도 도시 사례와 도시재생의 문제점을 살펴봄으로써 도심 내 과밀화 문제와 탄소배출 해결 방안을 제시하였다. 당초 '도시재생뉴딜' 사업은 도시의 다양한 니즈를 충족시키기 위하여 시작되었으나, 최근에는 도시 노후화와 탄소배출 문제에 대응하기 위하여 '그린도시', '친환경 도시'를 지향하고 있다. 그러나 이를 뒷받침할 법·제도의 제·개정 및 이를 바라보는 이해관계자의 시각 전환이 이루어지지 않아 크고 작은 많은 문제점이 발생하고 있다. 도시재생의 첫 번째 문제점은 정책지원의 30% 이상이 일반근린형에 집중됨에 따라 주거형 도시재생 양상을 띄고 있다는 점이다. 이는 임기가 제한된 지자체장이 가시적인 성과를 위하여 도시 내 인프라 확충에 집중한 결과로 지속가능한 도시재생을 저하시키는 요인이 되고 있다. 두 번째, 도시재생 뉴딜사업이 계획수립과정에서 지속가능성에 대한 검토와 환경성 평가에 대한 고려 부족으로 기후 위기 대응에 미흡한 실정이다. 노후 도시의 주거 과밀화 문제를 해결하고 효과적인 도시 탄소 감축을 위하여 건물 - 마을 - 도시 등 여러 공간 단위의 온실가스 배출량 감축 전략 수립이 필요하다. 세 번째, 치·이수 위주의 도시재생 뉴딜사업으로 탄소 중립 대책이 미흡하다. 대응 방안으로는 자원의 관점에서 물 소비 감소 촉진 및 재생에너지 증가 전략이 필요하다.

Urban safety has not been substantially considered in urban regeneration projects, although there is increasing interest in safety issues lately. However, there is limited research on the safety of port hinterland residential areas. Therefore, this study 1)selects appropriate safety indicators, and 2)identifies the most vulnerable sites in Dong-gu and Nam-gu in Busan using ArcGIS. 3)Lastly, our study asks residents of the selected sites to examine their awareness of the urban regeneration projects occurring in the vicinity. The respondents are fairly well aware of the ongoing urban regeneration projects, the effect of which on the improvement of safety are thought to be negative. The weakest point they indicated was accidents regarding aged buildings, and they also care more about life safety than natural hazard. These findings must be taken into account in the next urban regeneration projects in the Dong-gu and Nam-gu area.
