| Abstract |
This study analyzed the time to understand the space and the contents of information to be memorized in the indoor space. Understanding the space and examining the memory will not only provide the basic data on which visual activities occur in user’s perceiving the designed space but also expand the activity range of interior designer. The summary of the study results is as follows: First, with respect to gender difference, the results showed that males grasped the space in a relatively shorter time. Females showed more concentrated distribution range than males. Second, as for the proper time by accumulative sum across time, the results showed that it increased continuously until V time zone(120～150 seconds), it decreased rapidly after the V zone, which indicated that the proper gazing time for the indoor space as the target of this study is less than 150 seconds(effective gazing time). Third, in terms of efficiency of information acquisition, the results suggested that「60～90 seconds」are the effective time for acquiring the greatest amount of information. Fourth, regarding the information acquisition method, males were approximately 4.1%～10.1% lower in the evaluation through phrase and image. The evaluation of subjects through phrase than image was connected to more accurate information acquisition. |
