아파트 居住者의 平面類型別 平面構成에 대한 要求 - 부산 海雲臺 신시가지 아파트를 중심으로 -

The apartment has been considered as the representative urban housing type in Korea. For several decades, researchers have tried to propose the diverse dwelling unit plans on the base of the apartment residents' needs. One method to reflect the user needs for the apartment floor plans was to analyze their needs by dwelling size and floor plan type. From this point of view, this study was intended to define the residents' needs and suggest the direction of space planning for the diverse dwelling unit plans, according to the dwelling unit types classified by dwelling size and floor plan type. The 409 apartments residents who lived in Haeundae, Busan were asked about their needs related to the apartment floor plan. The findings were as follows; The dwelling unit size the residents wanted was more than 85㎡ and the number of rooms was ranged from two to four according to the desirable dwelling size. Especially, the residents who were living in the small housing units had the needs of 'one more room' or 'larger size house'. However, the small housing units lack the flexibility in space planning, so the flexible wall system such as partition and built-in closet, or the vertical use of space would be useful. Also, the residents who lived in 85㎡-sized housing units showed more positive responses to the 3-bay type than 2-bay one. Therefore, in the case of 85㎡-sized one, more diverse floor plans of three-bay type should be developed.
