http://doi.org/10.14774/JKIID.2024.33.4.001

This study aims to analyze the connectivity between the university underground campus and the basement of adjacent buildings to identify problems and suggest ways to improve the connectivity. Through theoretical considerations, the development of underground areas and the connectivity of underground floor connections according to the expansion and limitations of the university campus were analyzed, and planning elements related to connectivity were derived as connectivity, accessibility, and comfort. The analyses are focused on plan/cross-section elements, surrounding elements, and relationships with underground space for each target site. To summarize the results of the study, first, comfort and a sense of proportion of width-to-height affect connectivity. Second, it is judged necessary to consider the core purpose of connecting the two sides and their visual recognition. Third, a well-connected underground connection can be achieved only when the physical boundaries of the space are minimized and a high level of intimacy and non-barrier access is possible.

With the acceleration of global urbanization and the deterioration of urban ecological environments, urban parks play a crucial role in enhancing urban settings, enriching the leisure life of citizens, and preserving local folk cultures. The sustainable design of urban parks is not only significant for enhancing the city’s image and the living quality of its residents but also has a profound impact on the urban ecological environment. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop evaluation indicators for the regeneration design of urban parks by researching theories related to sustainability, urban regeneration, and urban parks. Firstly, through literature review and preliminary research, the study delved into the concept of sustainability, the characteristics of sustainable design, the concept and characteristics of urban regeneration, as well as the concept, development, and case studies of urban parks. This exploration aimed to clarify the theoretical basis and direction of the study. Secondly, the evaluation elements of sustainability and urban regeneration, along with the considerations for urban park design, were extracted and analyzed to establish their interrelationships, forming a preliminary system of evaluation indicators. Finally, two rounds of surveys were conducted with 16 experts in relevant fields to verify and analyze the appropriateness, effectiveness, and objectivity of the evaluation indicators by utilizing the Delphi method. This process resulted in the derivation of a set of urban park regeneration design evaluation indicators encompassing 14 specific items across three dimensions: physical environment, social economy, and historical culture, which provides foundational data and theoretical guidance for future urban park designs.

Community housing plays a positive role in addressing modern societal issues by increasing social interactions, enhancing economic efficiency, and providing social safety nets, contributing to the construction of a sustainable society. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relative importance of evaluation criteria for community housing across social, economic, and physical environmental dimensions of sustainability, thereby deriving weights and priorities to ensure its sustainable development. The research method involved calculating weights for each criterion using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The AHP survey instrument was based on evaluation criteria derived from previous Delphi studies, and the survey participants were experts from those Delphi studies. The analysis revealed that, firstly, social sustainability is the most critical aspect for enhancing the sustainability of community housing. Secondly, the criteria with the highest weights were economic factors such as the appropriateness of initial occupancy costs and reduction in housing expenses. Thirdly, social sustainability criteria like the activation of community programs and resident participation in management showed the next highest weights. This study is significant in that it quantitatively analyzes the relative importance of sustainability evaluation criteria for community housing, diagnoses the current status, and suggests priorities for improvement and policy discussion points.

Recently, attempts have been made to solve various modern social problems through communities, such as community housing. In this situation, considering that our society has not sufficiently considered housing from a cultural perspective due to its supply-oriented quantitative approach, discussions on the sustainability of housing culture rather than supply are more important in the future diverse housing market. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the sustainability of community housing by applying an evaluation tool that comprehensively evaluates the sustainability of community housing from social, economic, and physical & environmental perspectives and to evaluate the sustainability of community housing by targeting residents who are actually living in community housing. The research method involved conducting a survey targeting 100 residents of communal housing in the metropolitan area. As a research conclusion, first, the overall sustainability evaluation score was relatively high at 3.65 points (out of 5). By sector, economic sustainability was rated the highest, followed by social sustainability and physical & environmental sustainability. In terms of sub-items, in the social sustainability field, ‘accessibility of community space’ and ‘internal regulations agreed upon by residents’ received high scores, while in the economic sustainability field, ‘transparency in management fee management’ received the highest score. In terms of physical & environmental sustainability, ‘comfort of indoor space environment’ received the highest score, followed by ‘resident participation design’. This study is expected to be helpful in setting the overall direction for planning which areas should be focused on to ensure the sustainability of community housing.

To address the global phenomenon of population aging, the WHO has proposed guidelines for creating age-friendly cities aimed at improving the quality of life for senior citizens. Through this initiative, the organization aims to establish an urban environment system for all generations, including the elderly. Meanwhile, the Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism announced a plan to create public cultural facilities that will create a local community culture that anyone can use. Accordingly, this study seeks to analyze public museums created in age-friendly cities from the perspective of the elderly. A checklist was developed based on evaluation criteria identified through a literature review with the keywords “Age-friendly” and “Museums.” An on-site survey was conducted on six case studies in Seoul, all of which have been operating specialized programs for the elderly since the 2020s. The analysis results are as follows : First, based on previous research, “Physical Elements (Spatial Structure, Public Facilities)” and “Sensory Elements (Guidance System, Exhibits)” were identified as evaluation criteria for national and public museums in response to age-friendly cities. Second, the physical element was most evident, with a spatial structure and public facilities designed to accommodate the movement methods and access routes of the elderly. Third, in terms of sensory elements, color and brightness differences were applied to accommodate the decline in visual function of the elderly; however, the adjustment of font size was insufficient. Accordingly, it is necessary to consider exhibition viewing support services, such as placing brochures such as the “Large Print Guide” at the entrance of the exhibition hall. Fourth, there is a need to create content that provides experiences through multisensory stimulation that are effective in preventing dementia and developing cognitive functions in the elderly.

When designing space remodeling, it is essential to evaluate various scenarios that reflect the demands of project stakeholders and users in terms of cost and efficiency. Preliminary verifications are necessary to minimize the economic and time costs caused by rework and operational shutdowns due to design errors. Historically, preliminary reviews relied on personal experience, which lacked objectivity and scientific basis, resulting in low reliability. However, advancements in dynamic system analysis theories and system simulation technologies now offer new potential as verification tools. This study serves as preliminary research to develop a multilayer simulation optimized for interior design practice. It compares and analyzes Discrete Event Simulation(DES), Agent based Modeling(AB), System Dynamics(SD), and Pedestrian based Event Model(PED), which are widely used in academia and industry, to identify their characteristics. A medium-sized hospital’s health check-up center was used as a case model to perform quantitative and qualitative analyses of the simulation results of these four models under the same conditions, thereby assessing the efficacy and limitations of each model. The study found that DES, PED, and AB showed consistent results, suggesting potential for integration. However, SD exhibited time discrepancies with the other models, indicating limitations in integration and its abstract nature posed challenges for practical application in architectural systems. AB excels in simulating interactions between entities but struggles with spatial object recognition, whereas PED can recognize spatial objects but has difficulty controlling individual entity behaviors. Therefore, a multilayer design that combines AB and PED for mutual complementarity is deemed the most effective approach for realistic architectural space system modeling. Through this research, a theoretical foundation was established for the concept of multilayer system simulation and its application in the field of interior design. To practically apply such complex system simulations, it is essential to prepare accurate base data and set reasonable precision. The use of Monte Carlo simulations to generalize data could be one solution to this challenge.

Recently, as the number of dual-income couples has increased, the demand for indoor play spaces where parents can raise their children in a safe and healthy environment while working has also increased. In 2022, Seoul City began operating and supporting the ‘City Run Kids Cafe’ to protect children’s basic ‘Right to play’. Accordingly, this study aims to identify the spatial characteristics of children’s cafes established by Seoul City and provide insightful data and recommendations for improving public indoor play spaces. The methodology of this study is as follows: First, five child-friendly indoor play space characteristics were derived based on academic literature on children’s developmental characteristics and indoor play spaces. Second, the characteristics of child-friendly indoor play spaces were analyzed through a field survey of selected cases based on the analyzed framework. As a result of this study, ‘City Run Kids Cafe’ was found to have different areas for each case, and there is a need to increase ‘Diversity’ by creating a play space suitable for the developmental classification of infants and toddlers. Meanwhile, since ‘Learning’ through interaction with parents and friends was well represented in the space where the program was held, if a separate experience and education space is provided depending on the nature of the program, space utilization will be further increased.

This study focused on the rooftop space as a space unique to the traditional market that can appeal to the MZ generation as a differentiated strategy for revitalizing the traditional market. And it proposed a plan to utilize idle rooftop space in traditional markets. On the other hand, in this study, to propose a specific rooftop space utilization plan differentiated from existing research, using Yangdong Market in Gwangju as an example, the problems of using existing rooftop space were analyzed, and improvement plans were proposed. In addition to the traditional market, a relatively large-scale rooftop remodeling case similar to the size of this case was analyzed. And cases of large-scale complex shopping malls, including department stores, which are achieving great growth, were also analyzed by operating various experiential contents using rooftop space. The planned features were extracted and applied to the Yangdong Market rooftop space utilization plan and improvement plan by dividing the cases into three types for each program created. Since this study is based on a specific case, it is meaningful that it was possible to present more realistic and concrete plans. In addition, since there is no significant difference in the timing of completion of traditional markets in Korea and the shape of buildings by region, this study can serve as basic data for planning and operation when using idle rooftop space in traditional markets with accessible flat shelves.

This study investigated trends in the complexization of senior centers and conducted field surveys and surveys on 10 senior center centers in Seoul that are currently operating relatively well and are complex with facilities for the care of children. The characteristics of the spatial composition of a senior center integrated with a child care facility were identified, and users' satisfaction with the complex of senior center was determined. The spatial configuration of the complex senior center was divided into shared, partially shared, and separate types depending on whether the elderly group and children's group shared the main activity space, and the satisfaction of users of senior center was analyzed. As a result, the partially shared type showed higher satisfaction than the shared and separate types. In the complex of senior center facilities for different user groups, it can be seen that it is an important factor for users to fully understand and recognize that space is shared over time rather than occupied by specific groups without causing inconvenience to each other's activity areas.

As the importance of content in exhibitions increases today, contemporary technologies are being widely employed in exhibition staging. Augmented Reality (AR) is frequently used to enhance content presentation, and the incorporation of such technology requires effective storytelling techniques to improve user immersion and seamlessly set the context of the exhibition. To effectively use storytelling techniques, it is important to appropriately guide user behavior. This study aims to establish strategies for enhancing AR content storytelling in exhibitions based on affordance theory, which pertains to guiding user behavior. The research methodology includes the following steps: First, theoretical considerations based on prior research are used to develop a checklist for surveys and to set research questions. Second, surveys are conducted to evaluate the selected research subjects. Third, phenomenological qualitative research methods are employed for in-depth analysis to draw comprehensive conclusions. The study results suggest that, at the entrance of the exhibition hall, it is essential to actively use audiovisual elements that contrast with the surrounding space to make AR content easily recognizable. Additionally, it is necessary to provide devices for experiencing AR content within the exhibition and to minimize the number of execution steps. Finally, to facilitate interaction between the actual space and exhibition items with augmented reality content, it is beneficial to allow some flexibility in the content.
