| Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to analyze the plot subdivision patterns in Gangnam area. Since Gangnam area has been formed with the overlap of diverse urban planners’ initiatives and administrators’ interventions rather than a pre-determined master plan, it has totally different unbanity compared to other Korea’s new towns. Unlike other new towns characterized by their monotonous and uniform structure, Gangnam is featured with diversity and complexity which can be often discovered in spontaneous cities. This study attempts to provide a critical clue to figure out the spatial features of Gangnam by tracing back to the process of plot subdivision in a rigorous way. |
