| Abstract |
In this study, a field survey of vernacular houses was carried out in Sangju region where is located in Nakdong River coast; lifeline of Sobaek Mt. and Yeongnam area in northwest inland, and the regional characteristics of arrangement and floor plan were examined. Furthermore, the study will discover regionality and will provide fundamental data through comparative analysis with other regions after discovering the original form of vernacular houses in Sangju region. As a result of the study, the Folk houses in Sangju region positively adopted open-toenmaru on a self-contained living space with storage purpose space for farm work. Also, a yard is placed for farm work and daily living space in gathering-type settlement and fence and front entrance were installed for external boundary. Based on single house of 3 kan and 4 kan, the floor plan was designed with double line in beam direction or extended Kan in purlin direction to extend to house with several wings or half wings. Also, regional characteristic was shown by building attached house for farm work and storage to improve the purpose. These designs are created due to regional condition (North eastern area in Gyeongbuk where is located next to Sobaek Mt. and Nakdong River), temperature, gathering-type settlement (rice farming has been developed from the early period), and occupation of residents. In addition, the location on the major traffic route and conflict and interchange with Andong culture (mainly built with house with several wings) due to cultural and geographical acculturation created unique regional Folk house. |
