| Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to analyze characteristics of layout programs through the process of construction of governmental middle & high schools of Seoul in the Japanese colonial era. They were the one of the origin of Korean educational facilities and the typical models of regional schools at that time. Reorganized schools made new layout order with construction, remodeling, and removal. In cases of newly built schools, changes of layout in process of construction were inquired. Through these studies, we examined that the planning of the main office was most important for the new layout plan, and in the case of the new construction, planning of the main office was seriously considered, and the plan was changed according to the times. Furthermore, the layout program imported from Japan was adapted for each site and each period. In 1920s the change was minor and the main layout scheme was kept. In 1930s, however, the major change of concept was found out such as the asymmetric planning, the independent zoning, and the united single building. |
