Summary:碩士 === 中原大學 === 室內設計研究所 === 104 === The design of restaurant dining space is to enhance the higher level of positive dining experience and emotional communication field for the consumers. The good dining space is not only to meet the diner’s privacy requirements, but also to be able to satisfy the business benefits of the restaurant’s owner. The Korean foods and restaurants are very popular in Taiwan. However, does the design methods, and the configuration of Korean cuisine dining space different from that of other country? The objective of this research is to analyze the design thinking, density of dining configuration and psychological factors of the Korean restaurants. Methodology of this study was the Case Study, which selected three cases. The techniques of data collection included observation and interview. The methods of data analysis were Space Syntax and theories of environmental psychology. The findings of this study indicated that the cuisine layout, tableware arrangement and dinning method maintained Korean style, although the interior design elements were very modern and globalized. The major factors of the density of dining configuration were type, space, price, culture and the perception of crowding. Koreans like to invite their friends to join the meal. The relaxed atmosphere can ease the congestion. The average number of the density of dining configuration was 1.3. The results also pointed out that the movement intensive area of the restaurants located near the kitchen door, and the corridor connected to major entrance. Those areas have lower privacy. The higher privacy areas were next to the kitchen door and toilet entrance. The properties of crowd and privacy are important design factors for the dining space. In order to further understand the perception of table density, future studies will focus on the relationships between interior design and people’s cognition of environment.
