자연요소 디자인 연구 경향 고찰을 통한 실내자연요소 표현 방법 및 디자인 항목 구성에 관한 연구

Building on theories and preceding research relating to natural element design, this study extracted items of natural elements applicable to the indoor environment and conducted document research for categorization of expression methods. First, this study examined the tendencies of studies related to natural elements, classified design concepts,and expressive characteristics of natural element design. Second, this study examined the characteristics of natural element design by conducting a concrete investigation and analysis of domestic research concerningnatural element design. Third, this study systemized and suggested natural element design applicable to indoor environment based on relevant theories and consideration of preceding research. The subjects of this study include master’s and doctorate theses and dissertations and academic journals published from 2000 to 2017. The data are collected through the search function at the National Assembly Library homepage. The foregoing was conducted in three phases. In the first phase, this study classified the research articles according to the researcher, year of publication, and theses for degrees and papers on academic journals. Moreover, the method, type, space, and element used in targeted research were analyzed. In the second phase, this study summarized the contents of targeted theses and analyzed them by classifying them into expressive methods of the natural elements. Moreover, the detailed contents were summarized and integrated by generating concordances of each expressive method. In the third phase, this study systemized and suggested indoor natural elements applicable to the indoor environment based on the analyzed contents. Items of concrete and detailed design suggested through this study are to be used as basic data for the design guidelines of indoor natural elements for an eco-friendly indoor environment.
