Abstract This study aims to present basic data of a residential plan that enhances the satisfaction of residents by grasping the consciousness and needs according to the degree of partial sharing of residential spaces that are suitable for the characteristics of single-person households. To this end, the consciousness was identified according to sharing of the spaces, living equipment and furniture in the residence, and classified according to the degree of consciousness of sharing spaces. Based on this, a detailed spatial plan was suggested by grasping the differences according to the characteristics of single-person households. The survey was conducted to collect data in this study, the results are as follows. 1) Based on the results of the consciousness of sharing in residential space, it was classified into 4 types through the combination of spaces, living equipment and furniture. As for the bedroom, the frequency of sharing was very low at 4.5%, indicating that individual use was desirable. In this way, the ranking of the consciousness of sharing of other residential spaces, equipment and furniture was applied to the spatial planning. 2) According to the characteristics of single-person households, males in gender and 29 years of age or younger in the age group showed higher consciousness than other groups about spaces, living equipment and furniture. 3) Since more than 50% of the cases were not willing to share any space or living equipment and furniture. In the plan, it is necessary to adjust the scope of sharing by type according to the size of personal space, the consciousness of sharing in residential space, and the characteristics of single-person households.
