Aligned with the Act on Convenience Enhancement Guarantee for the Disabled, Elderly, Pregnant Women, etc., a process confirms criteria compliance, checking for available convenience facilities. This study analyzes school facilities to implement supportive laws for the disabled. A survey, targeting over 100 architectural design firms that include architects, examined the suitability of convenience facility standards. Results revealed a persistently low awareness among designers even 25 years after the Act's enactment. The legal authority in Seoul reviews design documents submitted for modifying convenience facilities in educational buildings. They assess designs for the installation of these facilities based on relevant laws and regulations. This study aims to assist designers in recognizing and understanding convenience facilities by offering examples of document preparation, ultimately encouraging them to apply these improved guidelines in their building planning and design processes.

This study was conducted with the purpose of positioning architectural aesthetic sensibility on a coordinate system for the level of architectural aesthetic and monetary value. Data were collected from 800 local citizens targeting public buildings in five metropolitan cities across the country. Through an interactive survey, we collected architectural aesthetic scores, emotional words, and payment amount data using the contingent valuation method. Using R Studio, a big data analysis tool, word cloud analysis and weighted log odds analysis were used to create an emotional vocabulary positioning map based on the level of architectural aesthetic and monetary value. The main results of the study are as follows; First, in word cloud analysis, the architectural aesthetic sensibility is clearly differentiated between architectural aesthetic scores of less than 70 points and over 70 points, whereas in the case of monetary value, sensibility is mixed. Second, as a result of the cluster positioning, positive emotions include those that simply have high architectural aesthetic scores, while there are other emotions that increase both architectural aesthetic scores and monetary value. Third, through word cloud analysis and weighted log-odds analysis, the architectural aesthetic sensibility was finally positioned according to the level of architectural aesthetic and monetary value (Figure 8). Fourth, the emotions that improve both the level of architectural aesthetic and monetary value are ‘emotive’, ‘soft’, and ‘flamboyant’, and these emotions can be design strategies for place marketing and emotional marketing. Fifth, if emotions such as ‘ecofriendly’ and ‘emotive’ are highlighted, monetary value equivalent to about 30~40% of the total project cost can be generated. Sixth, sensibilities that undermine both the level of architectural aesthetic and monetary value are ‘wasteful’ and ‘anharmonic,’ and these sensibilities can cause financial losses equivalent to approximately 18~27% of the total project cost. The architectural aesthetic emotional positioning map explored in this study can be used as a design strategy, including place marketing and emotional marketing, and is also significant in that it expands the scope of approach and research on architectural aesthetic at a practical level.

In modern society, rapid environmental changes are occurring due to the complex interaction of various factors. Starting in 2020, the social environment is changing rapidly due to the impact of the pandemic, and the social and economic living environment is changing significantly not only in Korea but also internationally. In this trend, behavioral and spatial changes are occurring in response to changes in the architectural living environment. To analyze changes in behavior and space from an architectural perspective in response to changes in the social environment, first organize the concept and aspects of the pandemic that caused the change, examine the theory of the pandemic, and examine architectural responses to changes in the social environment. There is a need to analyze. Therefore, in order to architecturally review changes in the social environment due to the pandemic, the purpose of this study is to analyze the living behavior and space of major apartment complexes in the living environment and present new spatial alternatives in response.

The demand for Knowledge Industry Centers, supported by various incentives such as tax benefits, is rising. However, the haphazard establishment of these centers has led to increased vacancies, hampering architectural and regional revitalization efforts. As a solution, many are adopting co-working spaces to differentiate community facilities within Knowledge Industry Centers. This study aims to integrate the characteristics of co-working spaces into community facilities within Knowledge Industry Centers and propose spatial planning directions. By highlighting area-specific traits, this study sheds light on recent trends and offers insights into effective community space design to revitalize both the center and its surroundings. Analyzing residential mixed-use Knowledge Industry Centers completed after 2020, the study found that community facilities tend to be horizontally uniform and vertically dispersed. This distribution is believed to have evolved as buildings gradually increased in size and became high-rise structures. However, placement types seemed to have had little impact on element evaluation. While convenience is paramount in most areas, openness outweighed convenience in refresh zones. Flexibility, except in interactive zones, was generally rated lower. This study suggests prioritizing user convenience in spatial planning to enhance foot traffic and foster emotionally stable communities. Additionally, it advocates for expanding the scope of planning to consider space flexibility, which not only enhances utilization but also ensures long-term facility sustainability through repurposing options when its value diminishes. Thus, community facilities should embrace adaptable forms.

This study aims to establish criteria for setting up operating rooms (ORs) for patients with severe respiratory infections. It reviews international and domestic research and guidelines to provide relevant cases and data for future facility guideline research. Initially, it reviews general OR facility guidelines and requirements. Then, it summarizes cases from research and guidelines published from the SARS outbreak to the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, it analyzes the applicability of these cases to existing domestic OR layouts. This study suggests two major cases: a positive pressured OR with a negative pressured anteroom as the preferred method in international studies and a negative pressured OR in domestic settings. In domestic OR setups, the latter could be adaptable without losing or shutting down extra ORs, while the former requires additional support rooms usable as an anteroom in new hospitals. However, the suitability of these cases may vary based on the level of procedure infection risk, necessitating further study to develop verified OR facilities and guidelines that balance isolation settings with infection risk levels.

In addition, architectural planning guidelines are only dealing with the indoor sports facilities. The purpose of this study is to study the architectural plan of an artistic gymnastics training space in an elementary school. This study propose basic architectural plan guidelines for an artistic gymnastics training space. Chapter 2 summarizes the architectural plan characteristics of indoor sports facilities. And, in order to understand the characteristics of artistic gymnastics, the area required for each artistic gymnastics event was organized. We also researched the current status of domestic artistic gymnastics training facilities. In Chapter 3, the case of artistic gymnastics training spaces was researched. As a case study, the Seoul Gangdeok Elementary School Artistic Gymnastics Training Space was selected among the five elementary schools in Seoul that have an artistic gymnastics training space. Also, Two overseas training facilities of similar size to the domestic case were selected. Through this case study, problems such as differences with indoor sports facility space planning guidelines and the characteristics of artistic gymnastics were analyzed. In Chapter 4, guidelines for architectural plan for artistic gymnastics training centers considering the special characteristics of artistic gymnastics were proposed. The guidelines were proposed focusing on the most frequently utilized training room. It was proposed to design a three-dimensional space plan by subdividing it into three parts: floor plan, sectional plan and interior plan.

This study aims to assess the viewing environment at the National Museum of Korea for individuals who are completely blind, using the Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) method to identify areas requiring improvement. It also compares similarities and differences with non-disabled individuals. The analysis revealed specific areas for improvement, concentrated in the fourth quadrant. For blind individuals, these include the parking lot, corridors/stairs, elevator/escalator, signage, overall usage information, emergency guidance, restaurant and drinking facilities, voice commentary, tactile model, resolution speed and accuracy, staff accessibility, and promotion and accessibility of museum events and experiences. In comparison, non-disabled individuals identified similar areas for improvement, such as the parking lot, signage, overall usage information, emergency guidance, noise levels, promotion of museum events and experiences, and participation possibilities. To enhance the viewing environment at the National Museum of Korea, particularly for blind visitors, improvements are needed in access and mobility facilities, signage, staff responsiveness, commentary methods, and program participation. Priority should be given to improving signage linked to movement and promoting participation in various programs, based on feedback from non-disabled visitors.

To address youth housing poverty, Seoul has established and implemented a support system for Youth Safe Housing. This initiative aims to encourage development in areas centered around public transportation and attract private investment by easing regulations and simplifying procedures. However, this approach has led to a trend where Youth Safe Housing development prioritizes business feasibility over community functionality. Previous studies on Youth Safe Housing have primarily focused on institutional and demand surveys, neglecting specific spatial planning. This study seeks to analyze the spatial layout of Youth Safe Housing by comparing it with enterprise-type rental housing, where youth communities thrive. A literature review identified issues and research trends related to community facilities in youth housing. Representative cases of Youth Safe Housing and enterprise-type rental housing were selected for analysis of their current situation and spatial planning. The spatial configuration of community facilities was analyzed for each case using the DepthmapX program based on Space Syntax theory, to generate VGA. Lastly, the characteristics of each facility's spatial layout were compared and analyzed to understand accessibility and social interaction. This study revealed issues such as insufficient community facilities and limited interaction opportunities due to the spatial configuration of Youth Safe Housing. These findings are expected to serve as foundational data for future planning of community facilities in Youth Safe Housing, aiming to promote interaction and community engagement.
