Abstract
The objective of this study is to identify the difference between the physical shapes of streets and building usage in Korea’s new towns, depending on zone and sphere, thereby deriving characteristics related to perception of the street environment based on the assessment by user groups. This study investigates alternatives to mitigate such differences through a redesign of the street space. The targeted areas are both inside and outside of station influence areas within two new towns. This study conducted a questionnaire survey and an interview survey. To analyze the data, ANOVA analysis, IPA analysis, and AHP analysis were conducted. Through the data analysis, interviews, and redesign of street space applying implications from interview, in the future, a development shall be divided into a “shopping priority zone” and “residence priority zone”. When urban design policies are directed toward planning smaller unit sectors, and setting design guidelines in detail, it will be more positive in the satisfaction level.
