Abstract The number of Dahamkke Care Centers (hereinafter referred to as out-of-school elementary care facilities) nationwide, which was 10 in January 2018, increased significantly to 1,046 as of January 2024. Nevertheless, academic research on the spatial organization and architectural planning of out-of-school elementary child care facilities by function is insufficient. Accordingly, in this study, the convergence type “Wooridongne Kium Center,” an out-of-school elementary care facility operated by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, was selected as the research object and the spatial composition of the out-of-school elementary care facility by function was analyzed. In addition, accessibility in space for each function was analyzed using the integration value. The space configuration for each function of an out-of-school elementary care facility requires five space groups: common space, activity space, management support space, hygiene space, and other spaces. The degree of integration of space by function was in the order of common space, activity space, management support space, other space, and hygiene space, and it was analyzed that the common space and activity space were in the main location. This is interpreted to mean that child care activities are concentrated in common spaces and activity spaces, so accessibility in the two space groups is considered important. Through such research, it can be used as basic data for the architectural plan and design of Seoul's integrated elementary care facilities and out-of-school elementary care facilities with similar area sizes.
