초록

Due to rapid changes in the technology and global business markets and environments, work organizations must deal with uncertainty, and seek out more creative and innovative solutions to be competitive. Workplace needs to support knowledge workers to communicate more efficiently and effectively in order to increase collaboration. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of office configuration to support formal and informal communication, in terms of openness and visual access, using visual integration and connectivity. For this study, comparative cases were collected based on time periods. One group ranges from 2016 to 2020 (12 cases), and the other is from 2006 to 2010 (6 cases). Spatial relation between each functional area were examined. Visual integration and mean depth were conducted using the depthMapX program, Visibility Graph Analysis including connectivity in each functional area within offices, and Visual Isovist in entry and community spaces. The results showed apparent changes in office configurations: older offices have more open spaces in individual workstation areas, which are commonly found in open plan offices. The newer office cases have more community areas, which are more frequently nodes and located within the main functional areas of whole office spaces. In the newer office cases, which are concerned with communication and collaboration, community spaces are more connected with other office areas, and less openness in private individual workstations is commonly found.
