Abstract Although the history of the contemporary museum architecture is relatively short, the concept of its existence has changed owing to its openness to the spectators at large. Within the short period of time, it has developed into a multi functional architecture with eduinfortainment function for the general publics in concert of the changes of its social activities in addition to its innate function as a museum to meet the intellectual desires of the spectators. Therefore, this study looks into how to suffice the ever changing intellectual desires of the spectators and the various spatial correspondences in accordance with the social and cultural roles of the museum with purpose to present the materials of the typological characteristics of the third generation museum architecture, which shows diversifying propensity, by means of an analytical study on the characteristics of the third generation museum architecture with confidence in mind that such materials are needed in the early planning stage. The chapter 2 divides the museum architecture into three generations for a comparative analytical study and presents the three classification standards thru the preceding studies related to the museum typological classifications. In accordance with the standards, 60 selective art museums have been classified by their typological patterns. The chapter 3 shows the result of the typological space classification of the 60 art museums through an analyzation on the typological characteristics and the interrelations of them. Such study is considered to furnish important measures for the realization of the substance of the museum architecture. At the same time, it is also judged to play an instrumental role for the theoretical system of the communication function and classification required in the early designing stage as well as to play an educational role important as the designing guide line.
