This paper aims to clarify spatial transformation of Japanese railroad tied residence district in the Andong city (KOREA)., which is the most famous city in Korea by the Confucianism and traditional housing. About 100 semi-detached houses had been built as railroad tied residences in the vicinity of railroad station.

In this paper, we discuss spatial pattern of Andong railroad tied residence and the transformation process of living space. Andong railroad tied residence area still maintains the original formation and appearance although over 60 years have passed since its foundation. However, transformation is going on began since railroad tied residence was handed to the new inhabitants from 1948 to 1970. As for exterior space, we found out 'GOSAT', which is semi private and semi public space for inhabitants in this district. And we found out 'HENGRANG' for residing element. It is also pointed out that 'Living room' and MADANG are created in the Railroad Tied Residences. The appearance of 'MADANG' and 'Living room' are caused by position change of entrance. In particular, transformations are seen at the position of toilet, kitchen and living room.
