  • This study considered stools not just as a tool for sitting but with their symbolicity as well. Regarding the changes and meanings of general stools and X-stools, this paper studied their images and explanations as well as literatures by quoting as it limited their range from the ancient times till Neo-classicism. In conclusion, the origin of stools exists in consciousness and also the social hierarchy of authority. There still remain the elements of X in any way along with the functions. This proves that furniture has reason for existence even today not just for its functions but something beyond that. Along with the historic flow of X-stools, we should know that there is diversity of thinking in the area of stools. In understanding furniture design or furniture, now is the time to approach to it in various ways, and it is expected that new design can be born through that thinking.

  • This study was performed in two ways, which are 'Before' 'After' carrying out trench search through GPR which is called 'Non Destructive Geophysical' to the expected area where the remains of historic interest could be distributed within the construction site from Dae-gu to Busan. As a result, the layer containing gravel and sand has more irregular specular surface then others containing silt and clay. And, this paper, irregular specular surfaces of prominence and depression patter appeared. After performing trench search, verified that the site yield dolmens and lots of stone implements.

  • Currently, with the development of an advanced industrial form, attention to human life has risen gradually. On the basis of aboves, Oriental medical industry has been achieved revolutionarily, and moreover the new word 'Well-being' has been born due to the value of life and attention to health. All who live in the 21-century have worried about problem with health and well-being, and the substitute medical science centering around the Oriental medicine has come up as the major concern, not to speak of the Oriental the West. Domestically, Research and attention to the Oriental medicine has increased, and its importance has appeared. At the moment, locally self-governing groups have taken an active step to study the genetic resources centering around locally- breedy wild medicinal herbfor their economy growth. Accordingly, in the historic view, to discover our medicinal herb's essence and to supply professional, systemical infomation of herb genetic, the necessity of professional exhibition museum can come up. under the above circumstances, I propose the public information museum in local area.

  • Sinca early 1930' Colitis taenia striate were introduced to the Donsgjin in Chollabukdo, where it hybridized with an endemic subspecies C. tiutheri. Protein electrophoresis revealed high levels of hybridization with intensive backcrossing occupied approximately 20 kilometers of the river. This is roughly one-half of tech historic range of the endemic species. The average frequency of introduced alleles of three diagnostic loci ranged 0.03-0.46 among 11 sites in tech svrnpatric area. Clinal patterns in allele frequencies suggest C. tiutheri were introduced in an upper reaches of the Dongjin and downstream dispersal of the introduced alleles followed. There is little linkasedisequilibrium between the diagnostic loci, suggesting the nuclear genomes of tech two subspecies are randomly associated. The evidence presented here and previously supports recognition of C. t. striata and C. t. lutheri as the typical subspecies.

  • ^x Open space has become the subject o\ulcorner remarkable, new interest ; and many studies have been done recently. In urban pattern, the significance of open space is not its quantity but how it is arranged. The end of this article is to set up a plan for the open space system for Kyongiu city. This paper has three parts : first, a brief discussion of the concept and function of open space ; secondly, a review of open space system ; and finally, a case study of Kyongju City. Especially, this study is focuced on the methodology in conserving and using prototype plan for historic and cultural environment. The result of this study may be summed up as follows : 1) The open space network for kyongju city can be planned out as a belt and ripple pattern. 2) The linear element of open space must play an important role in connecting each element with the whole open space system. 3 ) The Hwangseong pork can be the focal element of the open space system.

Editor's Note Response to Friedman's "The World Before Corona and the World After": A Perspective Raging From the Development of Civilization to the Harmony of East and West, and the Paradigm Shift

  • Thomas L. Friedman's "Our New Historic Divide: B.C. and A.C. ― The World Before Corona and the World After" column is becoming the talk of the times. Whoever talks about the post-Corona world mentions "BC/AC" as a new concept. However, people seem to be overusing the term "BC/AC" while overlooking the specific context that Friedman emphasized. So, taking into account the cultural differences and contexts of the East and the West highlighted in Friedman's column, we devised the "BC/AC" ten-paradigm hypothesis. We hope these ten cultural shifts will be the first step in examining the post-Corona world.

The 20th Century High-Rise as Heritage: Notes on a Teaching Experience of the Adaptive Reuse of the Metropolo Hotel in Shanghai

  • The adaptive reuse of 20th-century high-rise architecture poses important questions about the prevalence of authorized discourses in the heritage conservation field. Based on a two-year teaching experience at Tongji University about the adaptive reuse of the Metropolo Hotel (Palmer and Turner, 1934), an iconic historic high-rise building in the Shanghai Bund area, this paper will show the extent to which disciplinary and urban authorized heritage discourses are present in the development of design and representation strategies in adaptive reuse. Using discourse analysis as a method, this paper will make the argument that disciplinary discourses have a limited effect in the practice of adaptive reuse, which is perceived as a fundamentally creative activity. At the same time, the paper reveals how urban discourses have a much more lasting effect, confirming the intimate links between adaptive reuse and the wider phenomena of beautification and gentrification of high-rise listed areas.

  • Unconventional with respect for tradition: The Karel Doorman building stands in the heart of Rotterdam's shopping area and is a remarkable combination of restoration and new development. On top of the Ter Meulen shopping centre - a monument of the post-war reconstruction period - we have built an extremely light-weight construction in steel and wood (See Figure 1 & 2). This unconventional building method - at least in the Netherlands - enabled the construction of a 70 metres high 'glass' residential building with 114 apartments and 156 parking places. In this way a remarkable historic Rotterdam building was preserved for the future while at the same time new housing was created on a sheer impossible location, contributing to the quality of life and social safety in this part of the city.

  • The characteristics of traditional Thai houses are post-and-beam structure, lifted floor on pillars, and gabled roof as like as houses in other Southeast Asia countries. However 'charn', connective terrace among each room, is the most unique element in Thai houses which make the area under the 'charn' cool and useful. In Thailand, there are number of housing types caused by historic, social, cultural and geographic factors. This research is focused on comparative study of planning of traditional Thai houses of central and northern region, which have the biggest differences in between. Thai traditional house in central region has symmetrical arrangement on layout and when family members are added, they extend 'charn' and attach another building. While in Northern region, the 'charn' is located not in the center and in the front, and the direction of the main building is perpendicular to the length direction of the veranda. This research has a limitation to be generalized because just two region in Thailand were analyzed and the numbers of case studies were few. Nevertheless, we expect this paper to be a primary guidance to understand Thai traditional houses and we also expect that our research area will cover the all areas in Thailand and finally expand to conclude the commonality and diversity of traditional houses in Southeast Asia in the future.
