| Abstract |
Recent consumption trends have shifted toward experience-oriented engagement, and mixed-use commercial facilities are increasingly planned as destinations. In these complexes, intermediate spaces play a key role in guiding movement and expressing facility identity. However, interactive design in intermediate spaces is often operated as display-oriented media rather than as an integrated spatial system. This study examines the characteristics of interactive design applied to intermediate spaces and suggests planning implications. An analytical framework and checklist were derived from prior studies using four dimensions: Functional, Sensory, Behavioral, and Relational.
Field observations were conducted across seven mixed-use commercial facilities in the Seoul metropolitan area that opened or were renovated within the last decade. The results indicate that functional support is commonly provided through digital signage and kiosks, while intuitive wayfinding cues and concrete program information are limited.
Sensory strategies using large media, lighting, and sound are actively employed to enhance immersion and reinforce identity. In contrast, behavioral interactivity remains shallow, mostly limited to one-way displays and basic touch functions, and relational features rarely support social participation or shared meaning. These findings suggest the need for integrated guidance interfaces and participatory interactive systems. |
