In modem days when architectural materials have grave impacts on overall design expression, materials for architecture, especially finishing materials have become the most essential elements for the design expression, as architectural space and form have been. This study closely verifies the concept of tensity analyzed in preceding studies by quantifying it through experimentation and questionnaire, and suggests possible alternatives which verified concept of tensity applies into the architectural design. It was examined how architects consider the finishing materials through a questionnaire. With a questionnaire, the possibility of quantificative analysis for tensity is evaluated by SPSS program. Moreover, a questionnaire about the social image that the architectural finishing materials have was also conducted. This questionnaire results In the actual methods to apply quantificated psychological tensity and social images into the architectural design and recommends better plan to select finishing materials for each spacial function and usage, Due to the great influence of social images in design expression, the application mechanism of the tensity should follow the general and individual principles together. With the tensity figure and application of social images we can find more resonable method for material selection.

The urban land is incapacitated to grow and correspond to demand the space in urban area. And recently, rapid increasing of population and complex of urban function on pushed to develop the underground space. In Korea, the underground space development in inefficient in aspect. because development of underground space have not consistent and systematic planning method in underground environment inclounding interion design, extererior design. Therefore this study is suggested the design element for comfortable underground living environment and assortment on utilization of underground space. The results of this study on utilization are security of space through land use efficiency, conservation of historical place, building and natural environment, and technological characteristics, mental image. Accordingly, this study is proposed design element that make comfortable underground space as aspect from stimulation and diversity, sapciousness and feeling of warmth and dryness to compensate improper image of underground space, spacial orientation and way finding.

In the philosophical sense, aZen teacher would probably say there is no answer to the Question. Whatnis Zen\ulcorner Zen is an approach to life, a way of being , rather then a philisophy or set doctrine. Modern living people quest for peace and tranquility has led designers and decorators to look to East to the natural harmony and blance of Asian home and to the simpicity of their art and design. Zen style interiors are simplicity and serenity. These imply the paring down of a cluttered environment and concentration on creating harmony. balance, touch, and texture. By achieving these things you can create a place where the spiritual or inner needs can be addressed and where you can indulge in calming or stimulating the senses with light, space, and free flow of energy In Zen interior we approach 'Homoㆍaesthetcus' by feeling and' Homoㆍreligious' by mind. "Less is more", this phrase has made the pared down environment an interior form.

This study analyzed the time to understand the space and the contents of information to be memorized in the indoor space. Understanding the space and examining the memory will not only provide the basic data on which visual activities occur in user's perceiving the designed space but also expand the activity range of interior designer. The summary of the study results is as follows: First, with respect to gender difference, the results showed that males grasped the space in a relatively shorter time. Females showed more concentrated distribution range than males. Second, as for the proper time by accumulative sum across time, the results showed that it increased continuously until V time zone(120~150 seconds), it decreased rapidly after the V zone, which indicated that the proper gazing time for the indoor space as the target of this study is less than 150 seconds(effective gazing time). Third, in terms of efficiency of information acquisition, the results suggested that "60~90 seconds" are the effective time for acquiring the greatest amount of information. Fourth, regarding the information acquisition method, males were approximately 4.1%~0.1% lower in the evaluation through phrase and image. The evaluation of subjects through phrase than image was connected to more accurate information acquisition.

Many cities in developed countries are showing their unique urban image reflecting their own culture, history, and aesthetic tastes. Especially color, one of the major design elements, has greater impact than other visual factors to form an unique urban characteristic. Despite the long history and cultural background, Seoul as a capital city of Korea does not have been successful to show an unique city image with the perspective of color. As a leading city of design, Seoul is trying to make its own urban identity through the symbolic environmental color, 'Seoul Color'. The purpose of this study is to identify the perception on the Seoul Color established by Seoul City among design practitioners and to suggest strategies for implementing the 'Seoul Color' in various fields of environmental design to set up un unique urban image of Seoul City. For this purpose, questionnaire survey was used and 77 questionnaires were analysed. Although most of the respondents did not know the 'Seoul Color', they recognized the importance of it as a major tool of building an unique urban identity of Seoul City. Respondents recognized the representing color image of Seoul as gray. Therefore, it shows a need for environmental policy to make an eco-friendly and lively city image of Seoul instead of current monotonous image. Also in order to make a unique urban image of Seoul city, 'Seoul Color' should be applied to the shape of landscape of Seoul differently. In addition, many strategies including advertisement, education, making up obvious goals for using the 'Seoul Color', and so on were suggested as conclusion.

Light is important as to say that it completes space and form. Space that is made by light is not only functional but it can be seen as a place where space and people communicate to each other. Recently mass media is embossed as communication method. Light is the most instant and affluent factor among what consists of the image of space to express sensitivity. Especially the artificial lighting plays an important role in the presentation of space in the mass media with the progress of technology. Therefore this study's purposes are to search how the artificial light present the image of space in the mass media and to suggest alternative methods to present the image with artificial lighting.

This study aims to understand the meaning of 'wall' and spatial image transformation by the wall. To find the meaning of wall, some classical works and modern works - Le Corbusier's Domino system and Schroder House-are analyzed into functional aspect of wall, in result we know that wall has of evolved throughout history to become an Increasingly active component of our built environment. Whereas the wall permits variations in the human and natural environment, the wall could be changed a lot of different shapes. The results of this study are as follows; (1) Applying new attempt to the wall makes interactivity in spatial elements. (2) Through rotation of the wall, we find the periodicity of wall length with sine curve. (3) Wall made by points and linear elements can change the spatial image, because of there geometrical characteristics.

High Tech Design manner is a design concept that had been constantly discussed in constitution process of the West art history and modem ideology and had been experimented in industry, having started from futurism and structuralism in the early 20th century through Kinetic Art & Technology Art and up to now. High Tech Design had a great influence also on Post Modernism and more important is that this manner of design will be existing continually in the future too. From the modem times when machine civilization started, the artist and designers expressed a utopia will showing the future world with help of High Tech Design and modem people are realizing technology images as a utopia, in the space and material presented by this high tech design. And this utopia imply the images of dynamic power, speed making a voyage in universe, dream of future, hope, mass production, earth's environment, wealth etc. High Tech furniture was lightly designed by using thin steel wire, structure stressing the metallic characteristic and tempered glass, and it was used for presenting a convenient interior space visually, and with that it can make a unified sense in High Tech interior space, and a contrary effect compared with minimal space. High Tech Design equipped with glass and metal materials looking inappropriate for our interior space due to their sharp and cold image has been regularly used as living furniture, not only decoration function, and then there must be reasons for that. This study intends to research how High Tech Design has been changed and developed in the design history & West art history from the early 20th century, and to present it's value of development as data orienting, namely a direction for the industry of the next-generation and furniture design.
