For the successful aging of baby boomers, a stable work environment is needed to continue working activities even in old age. Considering the physical aging of baby boomers, the form of telework through the home office is ideal for work. Biophilic design helps baby boomers work by supporting work productivity and stress recovery environments. The purpose of this study is to consider the application of a biophilic design-based home office plan for the continuation of baby boomers’ work in old age, and the research methods are as follows. First, through prior research, the characteristics of biophilic design in housing and work spaces are reviewed and home office planning elements based on biophilic design are derived. Second, a preference survey of biophilic design-based home office planning elements is conducted on baby boomers. Third, based on the analyzed results, a biophilic design-based home office plan considering baby boomers. This study is meaningful in that it proposed the creation of a home office as a working environment for the successful aging of baby boomers and analyzed preferences by proposing specific biophilic design planning elements.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of biophilic design in the public space of a Chinese general hospital. The application of biophilic design can play an important role in the public space design of general hospitals. We provide a better medical environment for patients by making general hospitals a lively and warm place. First, an overview of common spaces in general hospitals is provided, including the concept, characteristics, and importance of common spaces. Next, the concept of biophilic design and previous research on biophilic design are summarized, and the need to apply biophilic design in public spaces of general hospitals is explained. In addition, the biophilic design mode elements of general hospital common spaces are systematically analyzed in eight aspects. As a result of conducting an online survey targeting patients and guardians of general hospitals, the survey subjects were satisfied with the design of the public space of the general hospital, but highly recognized the effect and necessity of biophilic design. It was recognized that the application of biophilic design would greatly improve physiological, psychological, and eco-friendly effects such as reducing pain and fatigue, inducing positive emotions, and providing a pleasant space. Also, after applying the biophilic design, it was recognized that the public space image of general hospitals would change to a ‘clear, fun, friendly, and warm’ image.

This study summarizes the characteristics of defamiliarization and ambiguous spatial boundaries, and aims to analyze the relationship between defamiliarization and ambiguous spatial boundaries. The research method is to analyze the literature on defamiliarization and ambiguous spatial boundary representation, and then conduct a case study. The case analysis focuses on 14 residential works by Kuma Kengo and Sou Fujimoto, who work in the same culture Korea, referring to ambiguity. The analysis analyzes the representation of ambiguous spatial boundaries through the principle of de-stereotyping, combining disparate forms, and shifting meanings of defamiliarization. The results of the analysis show that spatial boundaries are ambiguous in most of the works, and when material or visual transparency is used, there is spatial continuity and internal/external transposition. In addition, we were able to analyze the use of defamiliarization by transforming existing forms to express the breaking of formalization or changing the meaning through recontextualization in the use of forms or materials. It shows the organic relationship of the representational characteristics and reinforces the ambiguous spatial boundaries through defamiliarization. Additionally, ambiguous spatial boundaries and “strangeness” are closely related. Ambiguous spatial boundaries can be analyzed through various principles of defamiliarization and can help us to escape the automatization of perception, to defamiliarize the user’s relationship with the space, and to discover and create something new. In this way, ambiguous spatial boundaries can be analyzed and applied through defamiliarization, and ambiguous spatial boundaries form an inseparable relationship with the appearance of defamiliarization.

This paper was conducted to study the eclectic characteristics of the facade of colonial architecture that appeared during the British colonial period in Malaysia. Malaysia went through the British colonial period for 171 years. Thus, the influx of Indo-Saracian and classical styles into Malaysia began. Most British architects working in Malaysia have a lot of experience in eclectic architecture construction in their home countries, making it easier to apply architectural styles suitable for Malaysian climate conditions. This paper mainly conducts research in literature and books, and the scope of the study is a government building during the British colonial period. First, the history, architectural classification, and architectural style of Malaysia’s British colonies were summarized. Next, facade analysis was conducted through case studies. The subjects of the survey were the seven buildings used for administrative purposes during the British colonial period: the Old Railway Station (1886), the National Textile Museum (1896), Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad (1897), Pertubuhan Arkitek Malaysia (1907), the Memorial Library and Museum (1909), the Sultan Abdul Aziz Royal Gallery (1909) and the Ipoh Town House (1914). Therefore, the analysis was conducted with the components-forms, decorations, materials, patterns and colors of the facade. As a conclusion, firstly, there are some eclectic characteristics shown in the facade components of British colonial architecture. Second, the ‘trend’ flow of architectural styles varies depending on the period. Thirdly, the emergency of necessary architectural structures is seen according to local conditions.

Solving multidisciplinary problems is one of the core capabilities required in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Contemporary society also requires such talent with skills. For this reason, many fields of education have tried applying Problem-Based Learning. However, architectural design education still remains in the traditional approach, which focuses on the physical environment itself rather than design problems that may arise due to other factors such as social changes, technological developments, and climate issues. This paper discusses the potential of the Industry-Coupled Problem-Based Learning (IC-PBL) developed by Hanyang University, South Korea, particularly from an architectural design education perspective. For this, the paper first introduces the architectural design class adapting the IC-PBL program in terms of class development and problem identification. It then evaluates the performance of the class according to the project outcomes, focusing on self-directed learning skills and social values. From the class assessment, this paper identifies the potential benefits of architectural design education applied to the IC-PBL, focusing on students’ perspectives engaging with social issues. Consequently, this study provides insights into considerations for future curricula for architectural design education to ensure that students meet the requirement of modern society: problem-solving skills. These insights will be beneficial to both learners and educators in the architectural design education area.

Rural villages in Korea are forming heterogeneous landscapes that do not harmonize with the surrounding natural environment due to the overuse of highly saturated colors. The factor in this phenomenon is the housing improvement project of the Saemaul Movement, which was promoted nationwide in the 1970s to modernize underdeveloped rural and fishing areas. As a result, the roof color of Korea’s rural villages is still perceived as being out of harmony with the surrounding natural landscape and a fundamental solution to the color problem in rural villages has still not been found. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to recognize the problems of color landscapes in rural villages in Korea that have not been resolved for a long time and to propose a color design process for practical improvement of color landscapes in rural villages. This process consists of 7 steps. In ?Research?, the concept of ‘main view points’ is utilized during field investigation, and In 「Analysis」, color analysis from various viewpoints was possible. ?Concept? and ?Color Design? presents standards for setting the direction of color design and color range, ?Guidelines? presents detailed color guidelines. ?Simulation? are used to determine whether the product is in harmony with the surroundings. ?Management and Utilization Plan? presents a plan for systematic management and establishment of the color landscape after the end of the color landscape plan. The conclusion of the study is as follows. First, when planning the color landscape of a rural villages, the relationship with the background and adjacent objects must be considered. Second, it is essential to reflect major viewpoints when planning a color landscape. Third, a systematic color landscape management plan is needed even after the color landscape plan is completed. This process will be used as a helpful process to improve the color of rural villages in Korea.

Visual directing of stage design which realize diverse scenes within the particular environment of theatre is one of the most important aspects of narrative. This is especially true for musicals written for larger auditoriums. As the musical market continues to expand, development in visual medium is resulting in increased musicalization of contents based on televised dramas, movies, and web-toons. We now need to look for new ways to better convey the attributes of contents based on diverse media, into musical format. The new circumstance now requires us to look beyond simply the realistic and expressive design and encourage us to seek visual diversity. This research is a preliminary attempt to utilize a new method of visual syntax for set design, unlike any pre-existing methods. In order to achieve this purpose, this research observes the musical “The Sandglass” with the intent to look into its approach to visual methods, and to better understand the characteristics of the deconstruction of architectural aesthetics. This research aims to understand the deconstruction of architectural aesthetics which originates from philosophical deconstructionism, and to research the logic behind deconstructionist design and methods of expression. Next, this research analyses how the characteristics of each method of expression illustrates the set design purpose of each scenes in “The Sandglass”, and also examines the meaning of those scenes as well as how it affects the musical’s general narrative. Set design is different from architecture in that it serves a storytelling purpose. While this may limit ways for set design to change, I hope this research will serve as a continuous opportunity to attempt to apply new visual change even withing the limitations of set design.

The main purpose of this study is to conduct in-depth research on the performance characteristics of payment technology applied in the field of commercial space environment design. This study aims to understand the impact of these technologies on tourists. From a methodological perspective, this study provides a review of surrealist art works, with a particular emphasis on the visual expression techniques frequently used by surrealist artists. The article explores the interaction between these technologies and spatial design, thereby revealing innovative design methods in commercial space environment design practice. Initially, we needed to analyze the artistic practices of four famous surrealist painters, including Ren e Fran c ois Ghislain Magritte, Salvador Dal i, Max Ernst, and others. Their works draw inspiration from the subconscious and deliberately blur the boundary between reality and imagination. In this analysis, the study depicted the inherent common characteristics of these technologies, including spatiotemporal properties, symbolic meanings, a preference for contradictions, and a tendency towards subtle dialectical differences. From these insights, the study continues to adopt design principles to synthesize these detailed findings. Subsequently, we designed a comprehensive evaluation framework, carefully customized it, and applied the evaluation method to four typical commercial space design cases based on screening. We hope to reveal the subtle implementation of payment technology in these cases and compare them with traditional thematic practices to determine innovative design methods.

The Otherness and [Non]Potentiality Inherent in the Architectural Acts of Passive Aesthetics

Jeong Isaac’s “Restism” distances himself from suggesting a new and interesting alternative as a solution. It is characterized by difficulty in discussing the style and composition method of the formality with uncharacteristic expressions, and this study focused on these passive aesthetic characteristics. The purpose of this study is to identify the constructive reality of ‘passive aesthetics’ and present its characteristics because it can present new architectural views and practical asymptote line on a different level from the ‘active aesthetic work’ of ordinary architectural design. First, we compare Hannah Arendt’s political pluralism and Levinas’s other ‘degagement’ with Jeong Isaac’s architectural activity, and then confirm Agamben’s concept of [non]potential within the “verbal materiality” of architecture, “time” revealed through actions and messages, and the resulting “theatricality.” The characteristics and values of passive aesthetics are examined by organizing the whatever singularity revealed in the detailed work, the construction of mining, the gesture of hesitation, the eventization of memory behavior, and the stage of gestures. Through this, “whatever singularity” is in contact with Vernacular and everyday architecture, and the materiality of pure language and the rhythm of gestures and images that mediate it can be expressed as a voluntary memory act of faithful repetition and reproduction by mining and recording. The dislocated narrative structure developed as a gesture of [non]potential practice is experienced as a theatricality that penetrates into the spirit and faces a moment of phenomenological reduction (one-off event).
