This study attempts to analyze the characteristics of interior design of the apartments in Busan that people will reside since 2001 and to find out the effects of minimalism in the interior space. The companies which are in construction of the apartments of more than 50 Pyung were selected, and the design of the living rooms of their model houses were analyzed in terms of the floor plans, architectural elements, furniture and lightings. The results reveals that the living rooms of the newly-distributed apartments in Busan show similar design characteristics without distinctive differences among the companies. The new trends provide a flexible wall which makes it possible to manipulate the number of rooms according to the family preference, art-wall design in one-side of the walls and a coffered ceiling design, which can be interpreted to be closely related to the concept of minimalism with expression of simple horizontal and vertical lines, exclusive use of decorative forms, colors and materials, and use of natural materials

The purpose of this study was to verify the stability of environmental disposition through analyzing the short term effect of the 'Interior Design History' course on students environmental dispositions, especially their interior image preferences toward traditional/modern, female/masculine, and simple/complex characteristics. The pre-test post-test control group experimental design was used. The independent variable was the experience of the Interior Design History course, and the dependent variable was environmental disposition measured by IIPS(Interior Image Preference Scale). The measurements were done at both beginning and end of fall semester, 1997. Subjects were using 71 undergraduate students of Drafting course (control group) and 35 undergraduate students of Interior Design History course (experimental group) at Y University. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, and F-test through ANOCOVA. This research revealed no effect of the Interior Design History course on students interior environmental dispositions. The stability of those environmental dispositions and also the validity of the IIPS were proved.

The protection of Design is very important issues in these days. Even though Interior Design is also one of important design sections, it is relatively unprotected by formal intellectual property laws, yet creativity and innovation flourish. The needs for protection of Interior Design have been creased. The aim of this study is to suggest the weakness of the system for protection of Interior Design. The proposed research is comprised of two themes. One is to research Acts related to protection of Interior Design. The second is to study the registered cases under the Design Protection Acts. These two theme is generated by the comparative review between ROK and U.S.A. Through these comparative results, this study propose some considerations for an effective protection for Interior Design. Design need to be registered in the hole image of the space not a partial element. The concept needs to be protected because it is more effective way to respond the copying. Exterior for facade and Interior Design need to be registered in one registration to use the protection system actively.

인류의 역사가 시작된 이후, 인간의 창조는 자연의 모방이라는 큰 울타리 안에서 이루어져 왔다. 신의 작품이 위대한 자연이라면, 인간의 작품은 극히 단순한 그것의 모방에 불과한 것인데, 인간은 인간의 제한된 두뇌 활동으로 이해하기가 불가능한 복잡한 자연을 인식하기 위하여 단순화(simplification)라는 방법을 사용하여 왔다. 이 과정에서 기하학(geometry)은 극도로 발전하게 되며, 인간의 자연 인식을 위한 보편적인 수단으로 자리잡게 된다. 중요한 사실은 기하학이 수단으로서 뿐만 아니라 인간에 의한 창조의 목표로서 위치하게 되었다는 사실이다. 즉 기하학은 자연의 모방이전에 이미 인간의 상상력을 지배해왔고, 그것은 가장 보편적인 창조원리가 되어왔다는 점이다. 그러나 최근의 과학과 기술의 발전, 특히 컴퓨터 기술의 발전으로 그 복잡한 자연은 단순화의 과정을 거치지 않은 복잡한(complex) 상태로 인간에게 이해되어지기 시작했다. 그중 하나가 19세기에 시작된 복잡성(chaos)이론인데 실내공간의 디자인에 있어서도 이러한 자연의 복잡성(complexity)이 새로운 창조 원리로서 자리잡게 되었다. 대표적인 실내 공간 다지이너로서 Nigel Coats를 꼽을 수 가 있는데 그의 무정부적인 (anarchism) 디자인 성향은 자연에서 발견될 수 있는 특징중의 하나라고 할 수 있다. 그가 추구한 복잡성(complexity)은 일본의 동경과 같은 고 밀도(high density)의 적극적 소비 도시(active consuming city)에서 발견되는 지극히 인간적인 도시생활을 만들기 위한 software의 제작이며, 이는 자연이라는 신의 창조물에 근접한 모방이 된다. 본 연구는 Nigel Coats의 작품에서 발견될 수 있는 이러한 무정부주의적 성향이 어떻게 자연의 본질적인 복잡한 (complex) 모습과 관련이 되는가를 통하여 현대 실내디자인의 새로운 방향이 이 시대의 과학적 발견에 따른 복잡성(complexity)과 유관함을 보여준다.

This study is to explore the characteristics and trends of the interior design of the residence area of the cruise ships. The interior of the cruise ships running three Asian countries - Korea, Japan and China was analyzed to understand the design of the public area and the cabin area. The interior of the ships showed the modern, high-tech style with their unique concept. Also, the feeling of the openness was emphasized in two ways- the visual and psychological expression and the spatial application. The contrast of color and the effect of artificial lighting used to express the extended feeling of the closed space inside the cruise ship. The results are expected to contribute to understand the interior design of the worldwide cruise ship and be used as a valuable data for the development of the interior design of the cruise ship.

Contemporary human beings have tendency to orient themselves to a natural environment while they have adapted themselves to artificial surroundings, which implies that a development of interior space where man, nature and space are in a sympathetic harmony with one another through overcoming non-naturalness and non-humanization is seriously needed. There are two methods in that; one concerns an introduction of environment-friendly expressions into the interior space as its natural factor, and the other involves expressing natural objects or beauties with orderly change commonly seen around in form of artificial design. On this study, the definition of ″Environment-friendliness″ and how it has evolved itself with time are first considered to search out for environment-friendly characteristics in the interior design. And then, among the characteristics of environment$.$friendly expressions widely observed in the interior space, the two aspects are studied for our purpose; an introduction of natural factors and an expression with artificial design. For the study, public facilities located in Ulsan were proposed since they accommodated lots of people. To meet the needs of the times that the development of environment-friendly space should reflect the factors of beauty and comfort enough to live in, relevant studies should be more activated and specialized. When there are a wide understanding of and a profound work upon introducing natural factors as well as ones of sound design into the interior space, a desirable environment-friendly expression could be created.

Modern interior design is expanding diversely, with the rapid development of technology and change of era. The basic of interior space that is rapidly changing consists of floor, wall and ceiling, and these are formed by materials, materials for structure or finishing materials. In the modern interior space, materials are utilized to present an atmosphere that meets the trend of the dissolution of post-modernism and the trend of minimalism. Accordingly, in this study, designers who take serious view on the relation of space and material, and the relation focusing on completed works, in modern interior design were investigated. The interrelation of the representation of each material, organic space, minimal space, and the space of Oriental fusion style were investigated through the works of modern interior designers, such as Karim Rashid and Ettore Sottsass.

Architecture is changing rapidly with contact of various cultures and development of modern technology and it is also becoming Polycentric. We can look at the tendency of deconstruction that denies logical rationality of modernism and minimalism that is known as a vertex of modernism. This kind of flow appears to be one of tendencies of interior design. Therefore, to satisfy the residents with the interior design, our study proposes a better space improving monotonousness of the existing apartment through case study. Through the case study, if we analyze the tendency applied to the characteristics of minimalism, we can divide into shape and space. Minimalism space says that the resident can build his/her own space according to the characteristics of the object. Also, it has an advantage of the resident being able to bring in furniture or decoration to change the characteristics of the space. With more accurate understanding and borrowing, we should do multilateral study to research the mixed loading and uncertain minimalism through the case study of apartment space.
