Summary:碩士 === 中原大學 === 室內設計研究所 === 105 === With the changing times and the impacts of low fertility rate, the decline in the number of newborns results in the decline in the number of students in each school year by year. To maintain the number of classes, the schools started reducing the number of students in each class, and as the number of students gradually declined, the schools had to reduce the number of classes. Eventually, as there are too few students, some schools had to merge with other schools and thereby got abolished. The aforementioned situation gradually spread from the non-urban areas to the urban areas, and gradually more and more abolished schools in the cities become unused spaces waiting to be reused. Meanwhile, the other concern in the urban areas is that many people cannot afford the overly-high house prices, and the houses they can rent have potential problems such as safety, poor sanitation and lack of resources. For the annoyance caused by the very inconvenient living environment, if a temporary residence can be provided to the people in need out of the limited resources, so as to, in an interim nature, help the disadvantaged groups , it is a kind of investment with a circulatory concept. This study understands the Open Building Theory in-depth, adopting the theory therein which divides buildings into “support” and “infill” to put forth a planning that reconstruct unused school space into social rented housings. The school buildings are designed to be open and obstacle-free, and this study aims to propose the most effective adaptive reuse in the remaining life cycle of such school buildings. Based on the above principles, replace the contents of infills without damaging the supports, and then establish the structural systems and pipeline systems to reuse the school space. It shall be adjusted based on the needs of different subsequent users to design social rented housing modules that suit the intended usages and spatial types, and then provide them to the people in need in the city for their usages.
