Abstract Recent sustainable urban regeneration encouraging place-making, shifts it paradigm towards recapturing existing valuable resources by applying low budget and technologies to invigorate the local community and encourage social participation. Space up-cycling has emerged as one of these intervention tactics that extends the connotation of recycling and redesigning old materials to prolong its advantages in terms of placed-based. Up-cycled spaces are based on low-budget strategies that preserve the site context with further multi-functional planning and programming for the local citizen. In this context, this study was conducted to understand the spatial characteristics and usage patterns of the Donuimun Museum Village, which was reborn by preserving and utilizing its form through space up-cycling strategy, recognizing the authentic sociocultural and historical value. A survey was conducted in order to examine current status of use, participation in experience programs, recognition of history, and satisfaction with the creation plan. Some major findings include, (1) the development and tourism content for visitors were used frequently by family oriented visitors, (2) the up-cycled Donuimun Museum Village was particularly revisited by community and citizen networking and (3) the up-cycled programs utilizing historical and cultural resources needed some structural recombination and stronger connection, especially for the first-time visitors. The Donuimun Museum possesses self-sustaining and reproduction ability among active visitors who continuously produce and accumulate further cultural resources. In addition, it is a significant space up-cycling case in terms of acknowledging the reinforcement of urban regeneration identity through preserving sociocultural and historical resources that allows positive behavioral patterns and communal connections.
