The purpose of this study is to understand tradition and change of dwellings and dwelling life of Dai Ryam Minority living in Menglian Prefecture in the Yunnan Province and explore for the way of people's response to space and pursue an order of space creating dwellings and the tendency of its change in recent years. In this paper, we understand how the housing aspect of dwellings of Dai Ryam Minority is to evolve by partly surmising. In addition, we will understand the way of recognizing space and the way of behaviors of the people in special occasions as well as in everyday matters and find out the concept of the way of their recognizing space. By so doing, we will explain the order which creates structure of space of dwellings, and pursue how such an order is to change. The order of space which has created dwellings in respect of the succeeded and maintained dwellings is changing. It is reflected in the change in people's response to space in everyday matters. No major change has, however, been seen in the way of behaviors in special occasions, which has been maintained to the present time. Dwellings of Dai Ryam Minority are made by putting a greater emphasis on the aspect of special occasions despite the change in the meaning of the aspect of succeeded everyday matters.
