Abstract The Purpose of this study is understanding the principle of space construction in traditional houses in Cheju under the premise of house being the dweller`s place. I studied it by shamanist interpretation. First I understood the quality and meaning of space by the theory of space and shamanism. As the method of study, I studied the space theory and shamanism and had a general idea of them. And then I looked upon the concept of space as residence and analyzed the traditional houses in Cheju. The conclusion of the study is this. I considered shamanism as a part of their way of life. Thus shamanism was a chief idea of Cheju people`s thought, religion, and a view of the world. Naturally shamanism was the chief principle with which Cheju people constructed the residence. Because this cultural social aspect of shamanism, it is understood and used as the principle of space construct in modern architecture of Cheju.
