The purpose of the present study is to figure out what the issues faced by architecture were at the time immediately before the transition to modern era centering of the works of Otto Wagner who acted in Vienna, Austria at the Fin de siècle. Therefore, the following points were examined in the present study; first, how were new spaces necessary to accommodate modern lives organized and how were the plans changed; second, how did the external expressions of architecture pursued by Otto Wagner appeared between arts and technologies, between historicism and modernity, and between decorations and functions. Through the study, it could be seen that Wagner began from historicism and traditionalism and tried to compromise them with modernity. Many modern characteristics appeared a priori in Wagner’s works from the construction of ‘Linke Wien Zeile housing block’ in 1898, his works completely broke from the typical historicism styles to open the period of inventive ‘Secession styles.’ At that time, Wagner concentrated on so called ‘flat decorations.’ Thereafter, his residential architecture completed to modern styles with ‘Neustiftgasse housing block’ as the peak. The characteristics of modern housing as above became a cornerstone of the modern functionalism later.

Drago Galić (1907-1992) has been acknowledged as one of most important modern Croatia architects of the 20th century and noted for his controversial apartment buildings at 35-35a and 43-43a blocks on Vukovar Street in Zagreb, Croatia. Although the two housings were highly regarded as the best examples of the post-war housing design in Croatia, a plagiarism controversy arose due to its similar exterior looks to Le Corbusier’s Unité d'Habitation in Marseille in 1952. This research intends to comparatively analyze architectural features implemented on the works of apartment of Drago Galić and Le Corbusier's Unité d'Habitation. The analysis focuses on architectural characteristics categorized in three parts: unit plan, community space, and unit combinations. The site survey was carried out to yield more useful information for the analysis. During this process, written and photographic documentations are collected for the further interpretation. In addition, scale drawings are reconstructed for the in-depth analysis of the project.

Jean Renaudie was an French architect who designed many urban social housing in France, especially in the city of Ivry-sur-Seine, near Paris, with Renee Gailhoustet, co-responsible as the architect of this city, communist city from long time. He was formed as an architect by the influence of Auguste Perret and Marcel Lods, two french architects, great specialist of the structure of concrete. He formed the Atelier Montrouge with Pierre Riboulet, Gerard Thurnauer, Jean-Louis Verret, and proposed many innovative projects, based on geometrically pure forms and masses. After he joined Renee Gailhoustet, the architect of the City of Ivry-sur-Seine, as a co-responsible for the redevelopment of this ideologically communist city. His urban housing concept approached to take the function as a space to welcome the urban life of the resident, not to offer the physical provision of housing repeating the simple housing unity. He accentuated the social role of Housing project not only as the level of a personal home but also as that of an urbanism. He offered divers choice opportunity to the citizen by the urban functional complex through his efforts to make characteristic complex of urban housing, and by the consequence, the innovative result was done which ameliorated the quality of life for resident. This is an exceptional example, not only in France but even in whole over the world. But the maintenance of building against the oldness and the closing shop of inside commercial zone of Jeanne Hachette became a problem, not only that of physical amelioration but also that of spiritual conservation of the works of Jean Renaudie.

Cette etude vise a trouver I'intention originelle de Le Corbusier(1887-1968) dans les Maisons Jaoul a Neuilly-sur-Seine (1951-1955). En general, on regarde ces maisons comme no autre architecture do Le Corbusier ou un des oeuvres do Brutalisme International. Mais, en consideration du developpement architectural de Le Corbusier, les Maisons Jaoul a ete we des deux realisations de la maison economique en serie que Le Corbusier a etudiee pour la vie: l'un a ete l'Unite d'Habitation a Marseille(1947-1952) pour la cite verticale en serie et l'autre les Maisons Jaoul pour une cite horizontale en serie. Pourtant, ces maisons ne sont pas parfaites pour l'homme. Selon Marie Jaoul qui est une petite-fille d'Andre Jaoul, Le Corbusier a prefere l'harmonie entre la nature et l'architecture plutot qu'entre l'homme et l'architecture.

지금까지의 집합주거를 살펴보면 건축의 역사를 통해 일반적 혹은 보편적으로 생각되는 형태가 존재함을 알 수 있다. 왜냐하면 집합주거는 형태적으로 변화가 어렵기 때문이다. 최근 세계적인 해양강국인 네덜란드에는 이러한 전형적인 형태와는 매우 다른 집합주거 작품들이 많이 건립되었다. 이 연구는 바로 이러한 작품들의 형태적 특징에 초점을 둔다. 네덜란드 독특한 집합주거들은 현대사회의 다양한 요구를 만족시키기 위한 시도임과 동시에 근대건축의 전형적인 형태들을 탈피하고자 하는 노력의 결과이다. 일반적인 형태의 집합주기에 대하여 이러한 독특한 형태의 건축물은 유형학적 측면에서 볼 때 건축적 신-유형이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 맥락에서 이 연구의 목적은 현대 집합주거건축의 유형적 변화에 내재된 의미를 밝히는 것이다.
