This paper is PART-II in a series of An Experimental Study on the the Sense of Visually-closed Spaces, and is mainly consisted of the two experiments. (Experiment III, IV) In Experiment III, we discuss the sense of oppression and the degree of it about "visually-closed spaces" In this case, the sense of oppression is considered as the sensation that may emerge when it is felt to to be oppressed and be extinguished when not to be oppressed. As a result, the degree of oppression is heavily correlated with the perceived volume, while the sense of oppression, when it is dealt with in terms of the parameter (ceiling height/stature), is dominated mainly by the area of the plan. In Experiment IV, we examine the visual effect of "furniture" The size of "furniture" is 450×900×1800mm, and they are placed in various patterns in the rooms used in Experiment II, III. Consequently, it is shown that "furniture" have influence on the sencse of oppression, and that the set pattern of "furniture" have more influence on it than the numbe of "furniture".
