The purpose of this study is to suggest the improvement directions and conditions of spacial composition according to location style of silver towns. The spacial composition of silver town used in 3 cases are analyzed according to their location(the urban type, the sub-urban type and the resort type). The points of analysis are focused on the necessary spaces and selectable spaces related to location of silver towns. In conclusion, the urban and sub-urban silver towns should have the necessary spaces and selectable spaces through analysis of the spaces in healthcare facilities near at hand. The resort silver towns should be planned to harmony the functional spaces with building shapes because they consist of various spaces.

Architectural design of general hospitals is progressing in the aspects of themes and concepts of design. This study aims to develope an overview of communal space design in general hospitals by analysing design compositions and themes and concepts involved in them. Organizational prototypes for communal space networks in existing hospitals are summariged for the result of this analysis, and concentration/distribution of communal spaces and hospital communications within communal spaces are included in the analysis.

The purpose of this study is to provide a basic data for architectural planning on the wards and special quality of physical remedy spaces of geriatrics hospital. This research, to analyse dependency degree of inpatients in geriatric hospital, shows relativeness between remedy space and wards, and to show behavior of each patients reaction to there space. Result of interviewed inpatients who were sorted by age, sex, dependency degree, and days in hospital, suitable space programming is to need for physical and mental state. On the bases of survey and analysis, the basic data for planning and design the hospital for the elderly with dementia has been proposed.

The purpose of this study is to present elementary data for space programming of pharmacy department in Korean Herb Medicine Hospital. The space composition of pharmacy department have been changed according to pharmaceutical service. In conclusion, the necessary spaces consist of medicine window, dispensary, herb medicine storeroom and decoction room. The selectable spaces consist of laboratory, processing room, manufacturing room and amenities for employees. This study suggest 2 types of space composition model according to total floor area and building scope. The location and area of pharmacy department change by means of change and growth of Korean Herb Medicine Hospital.

This study is about the Spatial Composition and Area Calculation in Plastic Surgical Clinics. 1. The space of the plastic surgical clinics are divided into 4 sections; exam, exam support, the staffs, and waiting and reception area. 2. The average G/N ratio of width was 1.46. The Plastic surgical clinics which had great deviation in the ratio showed these characteristics; first, when they were planned at first, the operation rooms were not assigned enough space; second. space for supporting exam and the activities of staffs was given too little consideration in their first drafts. 3. The average size of operation rooms was $21.76m^2$. The most desirable size was found to be $26.4m^2$ when we put the number of staffs, the movement area of stretcher, and the movement lines of operation room into consideration.

After 1980's, more and more people expect to the mysterious treatment of herb medicine about chronic and degenerated disease, according to growth of income level and old population. So the herb medicine hospital is begin to increase rapidly. But, they apply western hospital plan to the herb medicine hospital project which cause a lot of problem. To solve the problem, we suggest the new design standards for the purpose of this thesis which considered treatment method and system of herb medicine hospital.

Recently, every hospital requires the creative and novel design which is different from the conventional concept to deal with various circumstances. Accordingly, various space arrangements are proposed against the past uniform hospital type. But the sufficient studies about medical facilities in small and medium city and countryside still lack, otherwise there is short but continuous accumulation of data about the study for general hospitals. In this sense, this study generalizes the present medical condition in Ansan city and analyzes the spatial composition and area distribution in departments for the purpose of presentation of fundamental data about medical policy and architecture in Ansan city.

The purpose of this study is to the spatial composition of charnel facilities. The study method is as follow: First, To Examine existent research material about charnel house. Second, To Investigate controversial point of equipment and development direction through research the case of cremated human remains deposit rooms in 12 charnel houses constructed since 1990. So, to propose the planning direction of spatial composition based on the analysis results and utilize to basis data that is necessary in research of same kind hereafter.

The recent change of the medical treatment market is reforming the hospital space. The death-rate caused by cancer diseases is increasing in the domestic and outside of the country. The specialized hospital for cancer patients must be required. This study analyzed the space structures of the main section in cancer hospitals with the comparison analysis method. Space structures of domestic cancer hospitals are not specialized comparing to other nations' cancer hospitals. The conclusion of this research is that we need the architectural planning standards of the specialized cancer hospital through the space structure mainly concerning patients.

Recently, the Korean medical system changed with diversification & specialization and the field of medical service is also specialized in these days. The medical space settings are usually designed for staff needs rather than for patient needs. but The purpose of this project was to identify the design elements for the patient-focused. Main keyword of this project is 'high touch' and basic design concept is 'a sense of stability/velocity'. This medical space is located in Sanbon, and it has an area of 171m$^2$. The material scheme in the interior design of medical space is an important factor for the hospital users. Painting, stainless steel, wood veneer, fabric and p-tile were used as interior finishing material.
