研究室紹介
Professor Jooeun Sung's research lab focuses on sustainable urban living, with an emphasis on human-environment interactions, interspecies coexistence in cities, and age-inclusive community design. The lab explores how physical and social environments shape human and animal behavior in urban spaces, particularly through the lens of sustainability, neighborhood identity, and inclusive urban planning. Using mixed-methods approaches such as photovoice, spatial analysis (e.g., DepthmapX), and cognitive mapping, the lab investigates everyday mobility, social connection, and the role of built environments in fostering well-being across diverse populations, including the elderly and pet-owning households.

5This special issue of Journal of Global Fashion Marketing is titled “Sustainability and Management in Fashion, Design, and Culture”. Sustainability is a multi-dimensional issue that requires a more complex and holistic understanding of humans and their lives. Since the early 1990s, sustainability has been included in studies of fashion, design and culture in various ways. These four articles represent the broad range of research being conducted by global researchers who focus on sustainability.
Purpose: The size and concept of community has changed for decades of urbanization and the rapid change of technology. The concept of neighborhood has also been vague as a result, and the neighborhood territory should be redefined reflecting the time and area of the society. This study was conducted to investigate the physical and social elements that affect the concept of neighborhood. Method: A sample of the residents’ area cognition map of neighborhood territory was surveyed in Onyang, A-san
Purpose: This study investigates how humans and companion dogs perceive and navigate urban spaces during their daily walking activities, applying a more-than-human urban geography framework to understand interspecies relationships in Seoul, Korea where one-third of households own pets despite limited pet-friendly infrastructure. Method: Using photovoice methodology, seven dog owners in Seoul participated in a two-month qualitative study. Participants captured photographs during routine walks bas
고령화 사회에서 노인 사회적 고립을 방지를 위해 일상적 만남을 지원하는 주거 환경이 필요하다. 본 연구는 노인복지주택 커뮤니티 공간의 물리적 특성이 간접과 우발적 교류의 관계에 대해 분석하였다. 2015~2025년 5개 사례에 DepthmapX VGA의 분석 결과, 시각과 동선이 교차 지점에 위치하고 아트리움 같은 개방공간이 있으며, 경계가 유연하고 머물 수 있는 프로그램이 있을 때, 단순한 관찰이 대화로 확장되어 프로그램 참여로 이어지는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 고령사회 주거에서 상호작용을 촉진하는 공간 설계의 필요성을 시사한다.
