Abstract

This is a study on residents' behavior focused on “interpersonal distances, directions of their gaze and objects in their sight” in group-living homes. The observational investigations at four facilities are carried out and it is found that the furniture settings in which residents can keep 0.6m to 1.0m face-to-face separation encourage conversations. Therefore preparing various environment settings is important because the comfortable interpersonal distances for conversation, dinner, work and other activities have different preferred separations.<br>From the results of the field study, improvements in investigation method for future detail study have been proposed in this paper.
