Abstract
Healing environment is one of the most important concept of healthcare architecture planning through increasing an interest in qualitative development of healthcare architecture. Existing studies of post occupancy evaluation(POE) has been analyzed by healing environmental criteria which doesn't affect decision of architect in schematic design but is confined to evaluating architecture by researchers. Therefore it is difficult that verify the healing effect of space designed by healing environmental criteria proving from studies of architectural planning. The purpose of this study is how healing environmental concept and criteria are concerned in department planning and characteristics of space in schematic design. For this study, the prizewinner of healthcare architecture design competition since 2000 are analyzed by standards of healing environmental concept and criteria which was arranged by staffs of architecture. From this study, first, healing environmental design is more considered in ward, public space and exterior in hospital planning. Second, nature environment is the most important design factor. Third, patients' privacy and daily life of their family are not well considered in the planning of hospital. Fourth, social support for patient is considered in not general wards but special wards.
