Currently, the global furniture market can not overlook environmental problems due to changes in environmental regulations. In order to grow into a global corporation, environmentally friendly design became essential. In addition, domestic and foreign consumers are increasingly interested in and spending on children's furniture, and demand for environment - friendly furniture for children's health and emotional development is increasing. In the era of universal consumer tastes due to massive mass production, it has been changed into a multi-product small-volume production period that reflects the preferences of various consumers, so that various types of furniture that meet individual preferences are required. Therefore, in this study, we investigated various personal opinions, perception, preference, propensity to use furniture, purchasing points, etc. for environmentally friendly children's furniture, and provided basic data for environmentally friendly children's furniture development that reflects consumer preference and requirements. Accordingly, 243 parents who have more than one child living in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon were surveyed about the use of children's furniture and the perception and preference of environmentally friendly children's furniture. According to the survey results, 64.57% of the respondents knew about eco - friendly children's furniture and the most popular way to get to know eco-friendly furniture was Internet advertising (49.48%). The rate of recognizing eco-friendly furniture as healthy furniture with no emission of hazardous substances was high as 56.16%. The purchase intention of eco-friendly children's furniture was very high at 86.01% and the most important factor in purchasing was the harmlessness to the human body (56.88%). 59.50% said that it is not possible to distinguish environmentally friendly furniture, which means that there is not much information to consumers yet. In addition, the preferred price range is 500~1000 thousand won, and the preference for the rest furniture is high. In the preferred form type, unit type modular furniture is 36.13%, in the material, wood is 72.35%, in the color, the color of wood with wood grain is high as 45.56%.

This study is expected to provide some basic data on how to apply more economical and efficient eco-friendly factors to reduce the carbon emissions. It has been scrutinized and analyzed the environmental factors of passive eco-friendly elements along with active eco-friendly elements as more efficient factors for energy conservation based on the case of a newly constructed broadcasting building with the green building certification in Sangam-dong DMC area. The first analysis was the energy consumption trends in Korea and the necessity of energy saving. Secondly, it was examined the energy consumption in the current status of the broadcasting building. Thirdly, it was looked into the correlation between the eco-friendly design application factors applied to the broadcasting building and the energy consumption types. As a result of the analysis, the application of fan and feed pump inverter along with ventilation system of waste heat recovery ventilation system were more meaningful in accordance with the economic feasibility of broadcasting buildings rather than economical effect of passive elements such as rooftop garden, reinforcement of building insulation. Also, the application of lighting control had the economical feasibility. Therefore, when it is intended to change the green building certification energy related evaluation items of the similar broadcasting building types, it is necessary to change the direction of adding weight to the more economical active element items in the future.

Recently, due to the frequent occurrence of localized torrential rains and heat waves caused by abnormal climates. For this reason, it is necessary to develop an economical and eco-friendly rainwater detention facility that can secure the groundwater level through rainwater detention as well as flood prevention against concentrated rainfall by simultaneously implementing rainwater permeation and storage. In this study, the structural safety of an eco-friendly rainwater infiltration type detention facility made using eco-friendly inorganic binders including red clay was examined. Static analysis considering the constant load and additional vertical load and dynamic analysis considering the seismic spectrum were performed. As a result, it was found that the eco-friendly prefabricated rainwater infiltration type detention facility developed in this study has a maximum stress of about 68.1% to 75.4% and a maximum displacement of about 0.9% to 9.6% under the same load and seismic conditions compared to the existing PE block rainwater detention facility. It was confirmed that the eco-friendly prefabricated rainwater infiltration type detention facility secured excellent structural stability.

The objective of this study is to define the plans of eco-friendly housing and the meaning of architectural imagination, and to classify diverse sources of the origins of architect's imagination to propose a desirable green housing plan. Generally, imagination which means the process of forming in the mind based on one's previous experience had been perceived negatively for a long time, however, today this perception has changed as new valuation that imagination is the only the motive of human being's behavior patterns comes out. Meanwhile, green design means planning the healthy life in the future by finding the way that people and environment can live together. In order to realize green design in our lives, some plans which concern environment, style, and alternative technology of housing. Especially, in interior design, not only by technology skills but also by green visual environment, eco-friendly houses exist. Therefore, this study examines several elements which gives green atmosphere into the house, and understands how architectural imagination comes out in eco-friendly housing design through verify some examples.
