Abstract Street space is the boundary that divides public space and private space, and is the area where the coexistence of the two occurs most actively. Outdoor commercial activities are a case where public and private values coexist, and are commercial activities in the external public area by individuals. Outdoor commercial activities are preferred by many consumers and are actively appearing, but they are also having negative effects, such as the occurrence of civil complaints. The purpose of this study is to break away from the dichotomous concept of public and private space and study the environment of outdoor commercial spaces with the attitude that the urban environment becomes more diverse when the two values coexist. To this end, the characteristics of locations where outdoor commercial activities occur were identified through field surveys, literature research, and drawings. The study area is Euljiro 3 and 4-ga, an area where outdoor commercial activities actively occur. Based on the researcher's field trip, the Inhyeon-dong 1-ga area, where various types of occupancy activities occur, was selected as the research target. As a result of the analysis, it was possible to analyze the characteristics of the point where outdoor business activities occur by dividing them into the characteristics of the street system and the manage of the store. The reasons why outdoor commercial were able to function can be divided into physical environmental and psychological factors. The experience of occupying outdoor space for reasons other than outdoor commerce influences the business operator's decision to occupy outdoor space. Additionally, outdoor commercial activities occurred when goods occupying outdoor space could be stored outside. Outdoor commercial activity is influenced by the physical environment of the street it occupies. Occupancy is influenced by the type of transportation primarily used on the street, the type of business of nearby businesses, and the amenities on the street. This physical environment creates a transition space between the store and the street, allowing it to occupy part of the street. Lastly, outdoor commercial space expands or contracts over time, and its scope varies depending on the user.
