공동주택 청소년 커뮤니티시설의 배치 및 공간특성에 관한 사례연구

Abstract

Adolescents have strong physical and psychological needs, and they are constantly making efforts to learn about their surroundings in order to satisfy their curiosity. For such Adolescents, a safe and enjoyable leisure space is highly important. Leisure space used by Adolescents is an effective space for the mental stability and healthy growth of Adolescents. Therefore, there is a need for a plan to establish an appropriate community facility in order to nurture positive maturity of Adolescents. This study has examined the use of indoor youth facilities of apartment complexes in Seoul in relation to the facilities’ layout plans and space characteristics. Results of the study are as follows. 1) Indoor community facilities for Adolescents of apartment complexes are divided into educational facilities, leisure/cultural facilities and sports facilities and were found focused in a single location. 2) Educational facilities include reading rooms and libraries. The library must not only include space to allow reading, but must also include space in which individuals are able to use laptops and space for group use in order to provide a space for various uses. 3) Leisure/cultural facilities include lecture rooms, banquet halls, karaoke and multimedia rooms. Banquet halls, which are generally used by adults, must be open to parties for Adolescents in order to support healthy leisure activities for Adolescents. 4) Sports facilities include gyms, GX rooms and pools. Since the majority of the programs are currently for adults, various programs must become available for Adolescents to promote their participation.
