| Abstract |
In the Korean traditional houses, there are variable plan type like straight rectangular shape (some people calls Chinese letter一shape) and Korean letterㄱshape, ㄷshape & ㅁ shape, etc If the main building is straight rectangular shape, the kitchen is placed next the main room. But, in the others the kitchen is located in side or front. This study is based on the ideas why the kitchen is located on different place. It was found that there are three types(straight, parallel and special type) in the main buildings of Yang-dong folk village. The kitchen of straight type is bigger than main room, but the parallel type is opposite. The reason why the size is different is the main room is to be opened onto the yard for the straight type and in the other case, the kitchen is as well For the straight type, the size of building is comparatively small and closed but, the ground ia able to used more sffectively. For the parallel type, the big yard, home extensions and better residential environment are available To make the building like this style, in Yangdong village the shaped 'ㄱ' buildings have the different height of the dori that meet in the corner pillar. But, for the front building of Gwan-Ga-Jung and Hyang-Dan the height of doris are same. The former has the strong regional characteristics but, in Choson and Koryo dynasty the former style was more likely to be used regardless of region. |
