This study seeks to the meaning and possibility of the spacial boundary on the basis of contemporary architecture. The spacial boundary can be studied in the aspect of architectural space that molds human experience and perception. As a result of this study, three properties in the spacial boundary are revealed. One property of the spacial boundary is soft that protect privacy from gaze of exterior. Another property is that communication that changes according to material of boundary and its experience of observer.

The Program from modern architecture is an indispensable condition which must put in all buildings today and it is a relationship setting of a various functions. According to changing society consequently, a complicated form and program in modem appear again. Through this background from, we intend to observe the meaning which the program is having in the construction in this manuscript. Sejima is the architecture who try to use variously special formation of the program. Specially, we are planning to research the quality which his program is haying form Sejima's architecture and how it is reflected ill this construction. Resultantly, each program which appears from Sejima's architecture makes a gap space and irregular arrangement. The characters of the space which is put each through the gap don't have a deceptive plan each other and they are compounded. Also, each character to have their territories is intersected and putting out of the various features in the program coat. First, form of the maze plane, Intersecting each territory. Second, forming the territory as fitting their act oneself in the space where can be existing. Third, having more interest in the event that happens inside than existence problem of thing.
