Abstract |
This study focuses on ways to improve deteriorating, low-rise inclined residential areas, with a particular emphasis on Haebang-chon
neighborhood in Seoul, through the use of modular architecture. It aims to overcome the constraints of traditional high-density development
and presents a prototypical alternative development solution that respects the unique urban landscape of hilly terrain. This research includes a
comprehensive analysis of the area's topography, infrastructure, and existing building usage. It proposes a master plan to enhance living
conditions by upgrading roads and traffic systems, introducing pedestrian-friendly green walkways, and creating small, integrated blockshat
blend with the existing urban fabric. This study suggests a sustainable, efficient middle-density collective housing model, utilizing the
flexibility and environmental benefits of modular construction. This approach aims to tackle the difficulties of hillside redevelopment while
improving the quality of life for local residents through implementing various social infrastructures and ensuring long-term resilience and
adaptability by adopting neighborhood-scale master-planning ideas and spatial strategies that aligns with the modular architecture design. |
