건물번호판 개선방안에 관한 연구

Abstract

(Background and Purpose) In South Korea, newly built buildings must have a building license plate, which is an important facility that facilitates local governments in systematically managing new buildings while also providing relevant information to the building dwellers. Each local government has expanded and installed autonomous building license plates that are designed in harmony with the buildings, thus adding value to the urban beauty as part of design projects that are not subject to their jurisdiction. Considering the aspects of information transmission and cognition, this study aims to present an effective plan for improving building license plates from the perspective of people living in these buildings. (Method) After reviewing the "Address Information Facility Rules" implemented by the Ministry of Public Administration and Security, building license plates in Seoul, Incheon, and Suwon were selected as research areas and analyzed accordingly. First, a theoretical review was conducted on laws and regulations regarding building license plates. Second, based on an investigation of the status of the buildings and a study on building license plates conducted by each local government, a field survey of historical and cultural areas was conducted by region. Third, based on the results of the field survey, a schema for a positioning map was developed to prepare an integrated guide. (Results) A regional review of building license plates showed that while the Seoul Metropolitan Government developed and implemented the standard design in accordance with its guideline for the building license plates, detailed regulations are needed to address the issues concerning the marking and installation of the license plates, such as displaying the necessary information. (Conclusions) Currently, building license plates are regarded as simply part of the design project. However, being an important facility managed by local governments, their installation and usage requires further inspection and so that they can suit their intended purpose. Instead of ambiguous expressions, laws mandating local governments to install and manage them should be identified and analyzed to set clear standards for installing building license plates for each local region. Developing a standard design for building license plates would enable the creation of a more continuous landscape if the design is presented with a minimum design guide for each region. This study hopes to inspire local governments to consider how they could improve building license plates and systematically manage their installation while simplifying information transmission for the building dwellers.
