Abstract Generally, the building form, the curtain-wall type, and the exterior material are influence on the building images. Especially, the commercial building is decided the value by the building images. So, if the image about the curtain-wall type and the exterior material are evaluated objectively, designer should be realize the suitable image, reduce the unnecessary remodeling, and prepare the easy plan about improvement and change of images.
The purpose of this study is provided the foundation of image-evaluation in commercial buildings as one of the study methods. This study used the AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) to understand the degree of feel about the image of commercial building. And the progress is as follows :
At first, curtain-wall and exterior material of the commercial buildings were created by the previous study. Secondary, the image that suitable in commercial building and the material that suitable in building image were selected. Thirdly, the image and the material were graded and making simulation. Finally, the survey was accomplished by the simulation data and analyzed by the SPSS & Expert Choice(AHP program). The results of this study were as follows :
The first, the degree of feel about the image of commercial building is able to quantify by using the AHP . The second, the image words that commercial building are 'polished - favorite - prominent' in turns. The third, the commercial buildings are represented by the mullion type of curtain-wall types and the metal of the exterior material. Finally, these results can give a method to quantify images of buildings, replace curtain-wall and exterior material for improvement building-images and remodeling buildings. In future, architectural designers can design buildings by this process.
