Many housing alternatives and design guidelines for the elderly have been suggested along with the rapid increase of old persons. However, most of them focused on the spatial composition and fixtures. They do not address on interior style which affects on interior mood. The interior style is especially important to the elderly who spend most of their time in indoor space, such as housing unit or nursing home. On the base of these backgrounds, the purpose of this study is to examine what interior style of bedroom and living room where the elderly lives are and whether they are significantly different depending on their cognitive ages, or not. The subject were 202 old persons who lived in Busan. Their ages were more than 65 years. They were interviewed by using 3D images of bedroom and living room. Each one consisted of three interior styles; Korean traditional style, Western classical style, and modern style. The results were as followings; The interior style of bedroom and living room which the old persons lived were different depending on the elderly's cognitive ages. The younger the old persons' cognitive ages were, they lived in bedroom or living room of modern style. Also, the older their cognitive ages were, they lived in bedroom or living room of Korean traditional style.

Korean traditionally prefer a house with a southern exposure to other styles. Moreover, pretty part of dwelling style in Korea is apartment building. But generally, there are much more north oriented rooms than opposite one in apartment. Generally, most Korean tends to consider the direction of the room as an important factor to decide the arrangement of their furniture. Also, the location of window, door, bed, and closet can affect on the decision-making process of furniture layout. So, the closet position should be determined by not only window direction and door position, but also the furniture arrangement preference of residents. After considering the window and door position, there are 16 alternatives in a room. (Multiplied 4 window directions by 4 door positions under the assumption that the window and the door cannot be on the same side of the wall.) Also, this study analyzed each room style ratio considering the symmetry of each plan by comparing the apartment building plan. This paper studied the bedroom style by analyzing the 180 apartment building plans and survey of furniture layout; the furniture in this study represents bed and desk those are mainly laid in Korean bedroom. Finally, this paper suggested the methodology to find optimal alternatives of furniture and closet layout for high-rise apartment residents, based on the door and window position, and the furniture layout preference of residents.

The purpose of this study is to understand various styles of Korean house living, up to the present, to identify apartment living as the main house living, and plan and propose the interior unit spaces for apartment house based on the analysis on living space. A survey study was conducted to deduce the traditional major life style and its changes along with favorable housing spaces. In conclusion, this study proposed the unit space planning requirements that satisfies the conceptual and interior elements for habitant's characteristics and preference according to major life style as follow; 1) As the Ahn-bang(master bed room) has been changed from traditional space concept, it is mainly used as private space for husband and wife, and its utilized period is mostly at night time, the back-arrangement of the Ahn-bang should be considered. 2) As the living room is central space in the apartment housing and has complex functions which is utilized as space for family gathering and guest reception similar to the Ahn-bang of the traditional house, it should secure more space and it is desirable to arrange the space as open type by combining the pathway area. 3) As for the kitchen/dining room, the kitchen should be isolated from external attraction and the space for storing and preparing traditional foods should also considered, and the dining room should be arranged as open type. This study also suggests that since the apartment housing must be an integrated environment for habitants which satisfy behavioral, physical and mental elements simultaneously, the unit housing space should be constantly analyzed in various ways to produce a housing space which meet both their changing major life style and the temporal environment.

Most residential buildings in Korea are preferred to have maximum interior spaces, rather than consider its original design, overall building performance, and any other aspects since early 1990's. Especially in high-rise apartment buildings, balcony has been merged to living room to get more interior spaces and this renovation trends have been producing deep and narrow shapes of living rooms that was not initially intended by architects. On the other hand, the same gross area of each unit does not necessarily mean same width and depth ratio of each residential unit. Generally, we can categorize it to the deep or wide unit based on its width and depth ratio. Under these circumstances, this study analyzes the room usage pattern changes based on the space width and depth ratio and the effect of expansion of room space to the balcony. This study also includes about 180 apartments plan case studies to find out the relationships among w/d ratio changes, furniture arrangement types, and room configurations. In this research, general apartment room w/d ratios are 0.97 ∼ 1.23; 0.7(south facing sitting room), 1.23(south facing bed room), and 0.95(north facing bedroom). But, after expanding room space to balcony w/d ratio increased as follows; sitting room become 1.31, general south facing bedroom become 1.23, and north facing bedroom become 1.45. In addition to user preference of w/d ratio, many people prefer rectangular room shape a little(w/d ratio is 0.9 or 1.2) than square style (w/d ratio is 1.0) or very deep room style (w/d ratio Is more over 1.5). Accordingly, expanding the room space to balcony may make unsatisfactory room w/d ratio. Expanding room space to balcony should be considered by existing room w/d ratio.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the materials for developing the new house style by analysing the space characteristics of wood frame houses in suburbs of Seoul. For this, we analysed 45 drawings(site plan, floor plan, elevation, section) that were designed by MICHOO, WOOD-LAND, STUGA and CHOWONJUTECK company etc. The space design characteristics that we found are as follows; 1. The wood is fragile to humidity. Therefore this characteristic is especially considered in designing the space of bathroom and utility room. 2. It is the merit of wood frame house that inner space can be designed variously by using spilt-level and the slope of roof. 3.The public space and private space are completely separated in most cases and the stair is located in the middle of house. This structure of house is short of horizontal openness. Instead, most houses gets vertical openness by making second floor on the living room opev. 4. In wood frame house as the rural house, the outer space is well used by setting up deck and balcony. The outer spaces like deck and balcony are usually used as a part of life space in connected with living room, dining room, master bed room and family room. 5. The public spaces like kitchen, living room, dining room and family room are considered so important in design that those are arranged in front in order to have good outlook and directiov.

The purpose of this study was to explore typical behaviors of spatial usages such as patterns of spatial usages, perception on residential spaces, and furniture arrangement. A questionnaire survey and interview were adopted in this study, and 146 residents living in apartment with 3 bedrooms, stairway access, and 3-bay style in the City of Gwangju. The major findings of this study were that 1) dining-kitchen (DK) was conceived and used as a space not only for dining but also family gathering and guest reception. Dining table without refrigerator was frequently found in furniture arrangement of DK, and refrigerator has been relocated in utility room facing DK. The results imply the need for social interaction that has been growing.

최근 우리나라 1인가구의 비중은 점차 증가하고 있으며 이는 2035년에 들어서는 34.6%로 증가할 것이라 예측되며 이들 중, 우리나라 높은 주택가격으로 인하여 청년층 1인가구는 더 많은 어려움에 직면하고 있다. 정부에서는 청년 주거지원을 확대실시하여, 공공지원 임대주택과 민간 청년임대주택, 청년 기숙사 공급 등 다양한 정부정책을 펼쳐 나가고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 다른 연령대와 라이프스타일이 다른 청년층 1인가구의 정확한 주거요구를 파악하여 향후 보급될 청년 주택 계획 방향을 위한 기초자료를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위한 연구방법은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 문헌고찰을 통해 청년층 1인가구의 현황과 특성을 파악하였다. 둘째, 청년층의 라이프스타일과 주거선호 관련 선행연구 고찰을 통하여 청년층 1인가구의 주거환경 선호 및 요구에 대한 조사도구를 구성하였다. 셋째, 청년층 1인가구의 라이프스타일을 바탕으로 한 공간사용특성과 평면구성 선호 및 요구, 실내디자인 선호에 대한 설문조사를 실시하였다. 조사는 2018년 12월에서 2019년 1월 초까지 학생과 직장인을 포함한 20세에서 39세 사이의 청년층 1인 가구 150명을 대상으로 SNS를 이용한 온라인 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. (1) 공간사용특성을 살펴본 결과, 작은 면적인 청년 1인 주거에서 침실과 거실이 기본적 기능 외 다양한 생활이 이루어지는 장소로 계획시 이에 대한 추가적 고려가 필요함을 파악하였다. (2) 평면구성 선호 및 요구를 살펴본 결과, 별도의 침실과 거실 공간 확보를 요구하며, 다양한 활동이 이루어지는 거실공간에 대한 확장요구와 침실공간의 드레스룸 등의 수납 추가 요구가 있음을 알 수 있었다. (3) 실내디자인 선호를 살펴본 결과, 모던스타일과 대표적 컬러인 무채색계열 색채를 선호함을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 주거공간에 일반적으로 사용되는 마감재료를 선호하며, 조명은 간접조명 및 벽면을 이용한 은은한 조명을 선호함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 청년층 내에서도 라이프스타일 특성에 따른 학생과 직장인의 차별적 실내디자인 선호 특성을 살펴볼 수 있었다. 향후 실제 공공임대주택의 사례분석과 사용자 범위확대를 통하여 실질적인 주거환경니즈와 계획방안 제안을 위한 연구가 필요하다.
