Underground space has been used since the emergence of human beings. The history of residence in Korea changed starting from the Paleolithic Age to the modern era to meet the needs of the times and cultural and spatial needs. Due to rapid urban growth since 1960s and enactment of Building Act requiring to install basements, a lot of underground space came into being. A basement has a poorer living environment than on the ground because it is ill-ventilated and ill-lighted below the ground surface. In a modern society, underground space development in the downtown area is essential and it is even more so in a country with a small land area as Korea. To solve problems with underground space, alternatives using sunken space are emerging to overcome environmental problems and limitations of underground land. In this study, by considering a traditional pattern of residence in Korea, or a sunken method, I built a house by placing a foundation stone on the ground and erecting wooden columns on top of it. This kind of house construction is a traditional way of house construction that ensures good ventilation and plenty of sunlight coming in. The purpose of this study is to solve an assignment of environmental improvement by providing sunken space in harmony with main space and, through an analysis of the methods, programs and cases of sunken space composition, provide a basic direction of and establish a foundation for design necessary for composition of underground space. |
