| Abstract |
This paper aims to clarify the residential quarter organization and housing spatial form of Japanese migrant fishing village during the colonial period of Korea in Tongyoung and Janseungpo. Road system of the village was constituted from roads running parallel with coastline and small alleys stretching perpendicularly to them providing trapezoid shape of land. Residential quarter Organization of the village was considered of square forms, trapezoid forms, and non-fixed forms. The transformation of the dwellings usually occurs through plan extension and expansion of shop space. The rooms appear to be modified by giving them independent entry, a modification probably adapted to Korean lifestyle. |
