INTERIOR/EXTERIOR OF TRADITIONAL HOUSES IN ASIA IN CONSIDERATION OF FORM AND PROPERTY

Abstract

Architecture is should be designed with climates, cultures, society, and so on. In specially, buildings in Asia have been created with various combinations of original architectural materials and construction methods. Therefore, their spaces are much more distinctive. Architectural spaces are generated by dividing into insides and outsides. In other words, both spaces are separated by boundaries. When focusing on borders, architectural characters can be found from windows and roofs and so forth. That is why the study cleared both commonalities and differences of construction principles of Asian traditional houses and then explored spatial principles based on the concept of “interior/ exterior”.
