Abstract |
Since ‘Hanok Expanse Support’ has been started in Seoul, its target was expanded from renovation to new construction and from ‘Hanok
District’ to all area in Seoul. The newly built hanok with Hanok Expanse Support had to follow the standards about the form of the hanok
and adapt to modern lifestyle. However, the newly built hanok were planned with ‘kan’ since it retained the traditional wooden structure. So
their composition of kan were considered to be influenced by the standards of each district and modern lifestyle. Therefore the aim of this
study is to understand the architectural characteristics of newly built hanok in Seoul since 2000 focusing on the kan composition. Because of
the differences in site conditions and the district unit plan, newly built hanok in Hanok District have more limited changes than Other
District. However, kan is composed variously in horizontal and vertical ways to make the most space according to site conditions and most
of the newly built hanok have opened courtyard rather than closed courtyard layout. With kan composition in various directions and kan
added under the eaves, kan is highlighted in form. On the other hand, the composition of kan as an interior spatial element has changed and
weakened because the lifestyle has changed compared to the traditional hanok and the 20th century urban hanok. Also the regular kan
composition of Mom-chae and Nalgae-chae has changed. And kan is divided regardless to the wooden structure. Also, with the added kan
under the eaves the main kan is dismantled inside. This paper indicates that although there is an undeniable premise that the case is
restricted to hanok received Hanok Expanse Support on the condition of following the standards of the form of hanok, it is a part of the
transitional changes that hanok is experiencing. |
