Abstract
Built environment which creates neighborhood acquaintance is one of the most important issues in housing complex design. In this paper, we focus on the dwelling unit access design and analyze the impacts of dwelling unit access design on neighborhood acquaintance. Dividing three types of dwelling unit access design; stairway type, gallery type, and tower type, we made interview surveys in two housing complexes. As a result; the stairway type generated the highest neighborhood acquaintance among these three types.
