Abstract

The number of one-person households has increased because of social and economic changes in Korea. The purpose of this study is to figure out the need for different types of furniture plans, based on life styles, that minimize undesired dead spaces for those individuals who live by themselves in a one-room studio. Residents of Busan, who are in their 20 to 40 s, answered questionnaires provided by the researchers. 156 questionnaires were analyzed through a statistical process by using SPSS Win 18.0K. The major findings are as follows: (1) The subject’s lifestyles were classified into five lifestyle factors: the self-actualizing lifestyle factor, the well-being pursuing lifestyle factor, the open and sociable lifestyle factor, the stable and convenient lifestyle factor, and the information-oriented lifestyle factor. (2) These factors contributed to five lifestyle groups with common characteristic: the ‘self-actualizing group’ has a positive attitude about self-improvement and most subjects in this group are professionals. The ‘well-being pursuing group’ has a positive attitude about comfort living. The ‘open and sociable lifestyle group’ mostly consisted of students who are very positive in regards to accepting new trends. The ‘stable and convenient lifestyle group’ values stability and convenience in their life. The ‘information-oriented group’ pursues a lifestyle substantially depending on obtaining online and off-line information.
