Abstract

The purpose of this study is to ascertain the pattern in traditional palaces among those in the neighboring three nations of East Asia, notably Korea, China and Japan. The basic assumption underlying this particular academic study is that these northeastern Asian states have been developed a unique inter-cultural ties over long periods of time in history, culminating in their respective design cultures. Moreover, there are the similarities as well as dissimilarities more conspicuous than the traditional palaces since the traditional palace is the intensive space of the design elements and in better preservation than any other building. Thus, it would appear most feasible to incorporate the individual space cases into a common typological setting, which will be followed by an extensive comparative analysis. Undoubtedly the ultimate goal to be pursued, by so doing, has to be inquiry into the identical prototype of Korean pattern.

The purpose of this study is to ascertain the pattern in traditional palaces among those in the neighboring three nations of East Asia, notably Korea, China and Japan. The basic assumption underlying this particular academic study is that these northeastern Asian states have been developed a unique inter-cultural ties over long periods of time in history, culminating in their respective design cultures. Moreover, there are the similarities as well as dissimilarities more conspicuous than the traditional palaces since the traditional palace is the intensive space of the design elements and in better preservation than any other building. Thus, it would appear most feasible to incorporate the individual space cases into a common typological setting, which will be followed by an extensive comparative analysis. Undoubtedly the ultimate goal to be pursued, by so doing, has to be inquiry into the identical prototype of Korean pattern.
