Abstract

Youth hostels which are used for sound youth education and international exchange have high demand as youth training facilities. Recently, they have become resting places where general travelers can spend time together with family, friends and coworkers, not limited to youth. Thus, youth hostels are increasingly common and developing, seeking new design concepts for space as well as the basic functions of accomodations and meals and the structure. These concepts are especially evident in foreign youth hostels around Europe and the design characteristics in foreign cases can be classified as the expressional characteristics of the structure, material, color and emotion of the space. The study is to broaden the understanding of the application of new designs of youth hostels and provide rich possibilities for the design of future accommodation facilities through the analyzed design characteristics.
