비정형건축물이 가로경관의 인지와 선호에 미치는 영향

Abstract

Recently, irregular shaped buildings have been on the rise, and their unique appearances have had a big effect on the streetscapes around them. This study analyzes the characteristics of irregular shaped buildings and streetscapes around them and their effect on observer perception and preference. The main objectives of the study are to verify the following three aspects: 1) The characteristics affecting perception and preference of irregular shaped buildings and their appearances. 2) The effects of irregular shaped buildings on streetscapes. 3) The characteristics affecting perception and preference of streetscapes around irregular shaped buildings. In order to analyze the characteristics affecting perception and preference, two streetscapes in Gangnam-gu and three irregular shaped buildings were selected and a survey of 150 Seoul citizens was conducted. The results show that citizens have a high preference for their regular shaped buildings, and gave similar responses to the streetscape around the irregular shaped buildings. However, the preference of streetscapes with irregular shaped buildings has been gradually decreasing, which tells that perceived structural beauty and harmoniousness are increasingly important standards that affect preference.
