The light was most important element to Louis I. Kahn and Tadao Ando. The purpose of this paper is to define the characteristics of the two lights. With the light, Kahn wanted to make the space for essence of existence, Ando for regeneration of landscape. The spaces were more mental aspects. To make the spaces, Kahn was at the idea of the Order-Form-Room, Ando was at the locality and historic elements. The light in Kahn's work comes down above the ceiling and connect the Rooms. The light feels bright and soft. And little locality. The light is independent in every Rooms. Ando made panoramic light with his own scenario at the site. The light is various but very limited in its volume. The light feels shadowed and cold. It is come into from the slit of the wall and from the court. The light has circumstantial characteristic with the circulation. So the light in Kahn's works can be called independent light and Ando's called circumstantial light.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the Michelangelo's architectural characteristics and architectural languages which had been influenced by the architecture of Renaissance. It also has correlation between his favorite architectural Languages and ancient Rome architecture. Finally I want to explain his architectural diversity and importance which Mannerism and Baroque through new attempts in this report. First of all, I analyze the situations of the Renaissance times and architectural characteristics, then grasp the exact architectural situations in Michelangelo's times as well as make a guess how his architectural works got influence from his early works which were paintings and sculptures.

Scientific design methods have introduced to acoustic design of music halls since 1890. Many theoretical suggestion has been tried to practical design of auditoria with successes and failure. The present paper aims to reflect the current design schemes and conceptual design principles of auditoria with the view of acoustics. Seven different design principles has been explained with the sample figure of the music hall. it was shown that appropriate techniques has been applied to control the acoustic variations in the halls and more design solutions are needed to improve the acoustic performance of the auditoria.

This paper aims to clarify the establishment process and housing spatial form of Japanese migrant fishing village in the area Misu-dong, Tongyoung during the colonial period of Korea. Hiroshima migrant fishing village was established in order to attain fishing ground magnification with support of national policy. The Establishment was mainly accomplished during 1919-1930. the After 1945 Liberation of Korea, it was transfigured by a returnee and Korean fishermen.. The units of this village is Nagaya type. The structure of Nagaya becomes rectangle shape containable 4-7 units. Unit is composed of 2-tatami room and 1-kitchen.

The biggest characteristics of Korean traditional housing are that it has the structure combined by Ondol for heating and floor for cooling in a balance way, those spaces show spatial organization of the whole arrangement by ways among the ground connected mutually and private space is organically related to public space well. However, modern housing lost the traditionalism pursued by traditional housing, private space is related to public space, and became the room, private space of downtown, among the various public spaces. so, the space for not only communication with neighbors but also conversation among the family, traditional housing construction had, is sincerely insufficient. □□ The research was supported by a grant from the Academic Research Program of Korea National University of Transportation in 2012□□

Shading is one of the main causes to lower the power generation of PV systems. The shading has to be considered for application of PV system in the built environment. This paper analyzes the effect of shading on the performance of a PV array integrated to a building as a shading device. The building with the PV system is located in Zero Energy Town (ZET) of Korea Institute of Energy Research in South Korea. The methods used for analysis are formula and computer simulations. The result was that the upper PV array made shade onto a lower PV array and the effect of shading mainly occurred during summer season when the sun's altitude is high. The shading by upper array reduced the monthly generation of the PV system by 17% at maximum.

Kim Jung-Up has been one of the most famous architects in Korea. He has had architectural practice at Le Corbusier's office at Paris in 1950s, and returned to Korea, he has made many remarkable architectural works including French Embassy building in Korea. It is considered that his thought about Korean tradition was influenced by his mother at the early age. The characteristics of Korean traditional expression are appeared in his many works. Analyzing his architectural works, we can get some Korean traditional characteristics as follows-the Korean curves, the Kongpo(oriental capital structural system) and its details, the facade composition method, the empty spaces(interal and external) of Korean Architecture, the traditional site planning. As a result, he expressed Korean tradition in his own method on his architectural works and the more studies are needed to review his architecture.

This study is purpose to investigate environmental design on arrangement and plan design as well as ecological factors on the materials in the traditional house. The traditional house adapt arrangement to topography and surrounding environment. The arrangement of the middle region in Korea played the roll to prevent cold air from outdoor in winter and arrangement of southern region in Korea protected hot air from outdoor in summer. The thermal characteristics of the soil is similar to its of concrete but the moisture control of the soil is superior to its of concrete. As the embodied energy of soil is lower than concrete, the soil as construction materials could be ecological materials.

Today the formless form in architecture has been revealed. Although it has contradictory characteristics, the formlessness is considered as a way to the new architectural form. But such an attempt has been stranded with inappropriateness. The formlessness has been regarded as a new method that frees the architectural form from the traditional restraint. But it easily leads the from to the non-architectural one inasmuch as the formlessness also frees the architectural form from the ground of the architecture. Accordingly it is needed reflecting upon the meaning of formlessness and of the formless form. In this context, this paper explorer the meaning of formlessness and present a practical way to the implementation of the formless form through the comparison of Greg Lynn’s with Bernard Cache’s concept.

The purpose of this study was to develop an interactive virtual model house for effective communication of space information on the web interface. A recent appearance of web media emphasized interactivity, the perceptual presentation of space information. This study had an aim to conduct the effective way of communication of space information and analyzed to make virtual model house about 5 methods of VR technique, analyzed experienced system in real model house. This research proposes a interactive virtual model house system module that make the best use of 'Image based VR' and 'Modeling based VR'. That have also demand-offer system so as an interactivity of experience. In addition, this module was interlocked by database and distributed processing on the spot of an end user's request.
