A tendency of active exchanges of newly-generated culture and mind following with the world globalization has been leading totally new concept of social level, its life style and spending habit. According to these social movements, people's way of thinking has been shifted from we-centered to I-centered, which generate (cause) individualism. The tendency of putting much weight on individuality prevailed in the society grows the social awareness on individual's needs and tastes and ultimately lead overall movement of longing for single life style. The rate for singles also has been dramatically increased these days, and expects reach 30 percents of overall popularity in 2010. Therefore, various new concepts of residences for singles have been introduced recently, such as an office apartment, condominium and serviced residents, which combines concepts of both a hotel and an apartment. In this thesis, six examples of newly-styled residence for singles would be researched in every aspect, such as its service, facilities and so on. Although the fact of that overall service quality of new type residence now is well constructed and performed is derived from this research, I expect to contribute more various and advanced service quality into new social movement and new type of residences for single life, and finally provide satisfactory life style for singles.
