| Abstract |
This study is a first step to understand the characteristics of urban structure, through successive analyses of various places of Seoul. The purpose of the study is unveiling the principles and types for the spatial composition of Insa-Dong, under the fact that the characteristics of the urban structure of an area influence not only the urban design but also the architectural & interior space design. Based on the Muratorian school’s typo-morphological method by reference review, the analytical framework of the study is improved, contains the analysis of present conditions of the site by field survey. The framework includes the basic elements of urban structure, namely road systems, blocks, composition of lots, buildings, building codes, and related plannings. Each basic element was dealt not only with a historical view point but also with a synthetic analysis method to draw the characteristics of urban structure and types for the spatial composition of the site. The conclusion of the study summarized as follows. The linear court, so called, 'Insa-Dong street' has a crucial part of the site and interacts with buildings by means of three types : a direct connection, a connection with a front court yard, and a connection with an inner court yard. Various forms of alleys, which are another critical character of the site, are the results of development in order to interact with Insa-Dong street. Finally, it is compulsory that the types for the spatial composition and the characteristics of urban structure in Insa-Dong must be applied to not only the urban design, but also the architectural & interior space design. |
