Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between exhibition structure and Visitors' behaviors in the museum, which is an open-type exhibition space, by analyzing the spatial structure, exhibition media type and exhibition layout. The results are summarized as follows. First, it was verified that a larger degree of change to the spatial structure was correlated with a wider range of change in the figures for analysis factors of the spatial structure by applying the spatial analysis method using the Voronoi Diagram in an open plan exhibition space. Second, in order to improve the accessibility of the space, large exhibition items or exhibition items that can be viewed at from various angles should be laid out. In order to improve the openness of the space, island items through which the gaze can pass through, items on the ceiling and floor exhibition items are efficient. Third, in the case of spatial structures with greater access and openness, the initial viewing area should be consisted of island exhibition items through which the gaze can pass, while the exhibition areas towards the end should have hands-on items to maintain the visitors' attention. In the case of spatial structures with low accessibility and openness, the visitors' gaze must be ensured and a buffer area between beginning & Mid of the exhibition should be planned to give an overview of the exhibition so that the behavior of visitors would not drastically change. |
