Description

The purpose of this research is to show guidelines for the improvement of 2K-type housing. The characteristics of the lifestyle of aged-person households before the improvement of 2K-type housing are reported in this research. In the case of one-person households, many of these sole occupants spend most their time in the one room. The research revealed that the amount and size of the furniture, as well as the characteristics of frequent visitors, influence people's room function identification: the room with most large furniture tends to be selected as the main room, or reception room. One-person households tend to use just the one room for all daily activities and another for accommodating guests: when there are no guests, this other room converts back to an under-utilized room or else storage room.
