Recent changes in rural environment have resulted in diverse needs for residential spaces, which led to changes in rural landscape, in turn. Standard rural house designs reflecting the diverse needs have started to be disseminated in earnest since 2010. This study was aimed to analyze relationships between current and prospective user types and design characteristics of the standard rural house designs in order to provide information for improved applicability and extended dissemination of future standard rural house designs. On the basis of previous studies, user types were classified according to their occupations (farming, non-farming), age (old-aged, middle-aged), economic levels (popular type, quality type), household types (minimum-sized household, 2-person household, 2-generation household) and flexibility. Major findings were as follows: (1) As there was a great demand for outdoor space found based on occupation types, it was suggested to develop designs with diverse sizes of outdoor space; (2) design elements related to safety were found important regardless of the users' age; (3) regarding users' economic levels, it was suggested to combine important design elements required in other types; (4) as for household types, it was suggested to consider design classification by the number of rooms including minimal-sized units; and (5) in terms of the flexibility, it was suggested to offer a broader choices to users by diversifying types and forms of the designs. There were various design elements included in the current standard designs. For extended dissemination of the standard designs, it is important to reflect users' diverse needs. User type classifications and design demands explored in this study would be beneficial for future development of the standard rural house designs and user-friendly planning. |
