The aims of this study is to analyze that the double-skinned outer surface of building will be the effective measure to improve the use of space and save energy through the evaluation of the buildings renovation. In other words, it is significantly effective to increase the insulation of the outer surface where the most heat loss occurs; it is also energy-saving to convert the space created by pilotis in the southern and northern parts of the buildings into an double-skinned atrium. Research methods of this study are consisted with two steps, situation analysis and simulation analysis. IRISYS 1000 Series Imager was used for research of situation analysis and Visual DOE 4.0 was used for simulation analysis with the 1st Buildings of Jeju Special self-Governing Province. As results of simulation, it was proved that Double skin Method is more effective for green building than basic model. it was predicted to save 8.6% of energy by Double skin Method. Especially, in case of using of ventilation within double-skinned atrium, it was predicted that saving of energy was most effective than other method.
