Ho-lo-ke, one of the Taiwanese ethnicities, has its own culture that kinsfolk are living together in the same area. Moreover, they have established their residential spaces physically with the culture for a long time. The tactics to live together affluently is still alive in their daily lives, such as supporting system, networking among residents, community, and space design. The main purpose on this study is to reconsider the inflexible sense of values of modern housing, with those sustainable space composition principles, and rebuild the space quality by creating the relationships between environment, housing, and community. In YUE-MEI-CHI of ho-lo-ke village, it can be seen that space composition principles, and the way of life specific to Hakka have been sustained for hundreds years. From this evidence, we can conclude YUE-MEI-CHI has unique space structure from other Hakka. Their basic space structure came from original Hakka style but it has been compounded by adapting to Taiwanese climate. The main reasons to have been sustained for hundreds years are, 1) to utilize space of effectively 2) to constitute a community 3) to carry on their consciousness and tradition.
