The purpose of this study is to clarify the personalization of residents in nursing home. For this objective, four different types of nursing homes were surveyed by means of observation, furniture mapping, and deep interview. The results of the analysis are as follows. 1. By having a single bed room, residents can control their privacy better. 2. As the process of personalization, it is important to give the opportunity of controlling over space, time and personal relations. 3. In the planning of space, it is essential to take account of residents' psychology and feeling.
