The Universal Design is introduced as the universal principle to satisfy people's requirements for various environment. The public space of general hospitals should be designed with consideration of specific requirements of customers. The purpose of our research is to develop and propose the Universal Design checklist which considers the circulation in the public space. We investigated that the consideration for universal design was lacked by actual survey with the checklist made according to 'The law for improving convenience of the disabled, old people and pregnant women'. Furthermore, we found the problems of the checklist. We correct the checklist considering the measurements of the user's body and action. In addition, we propose the Universal Design Checklist by adding the new references in the article about the installation.
