Sumario:There is much discussion of the energy performance of buildings in order to carry out sustainable construction. However, buildings are not simply spaces that offer excellent energy performance, but are based on climate, culture, and context, which for sustainability are factors that also need to be considered. <i>Hanok</i>, a vernacular housing form in Korea, is based on organic characteristics and harmony between nature and human. <i>Hanok</i> aims to avoid the destruction of the surrounding ecosystem and to borrow the natural environment as a passive element. Wood, stone, clay lime and paper are mainly used as building materials. Therefore, <i>hanok</i> has a sustainable value that is different from its energy performance. In this context, it is necessary to analyze whether a <i>hanok</i> is a good space to live in, and a study on comfort performance was conducted. In this study, an analysis of the spatial comfort of <i>Hanok</i> was conducted. This research tried to derive performance indicators to pursue the spatial comfort of <i>hanok</i> that is mainly investigated through correlational analysis. The purpose of this study is, therefore, to find correlations by statistically analyzing user surveys and physical indicators, using Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis. This makes it possible to set preliminary standards for <i>hanok</i> comfort and how to consider these in the design stage.
