The style of Korean modern housing

⚠ Warning : I'm not good at English

Some people say there isn't Korean style of house except for traditional things like 'Han-ok'

But I don't think so, now I show you general residential street or area not an apartment area.

I think, there are fourth typical and general Korean style of houses in Korea.

The first style of house is combination old with modern.

These houses, not the white wall house, consist of a tiled roof, a red brick outer wall and a two-story type.

 Although it has own character, it's not cool in design.

Second, This is the modern style of house.

This style consists of a rooftop, brick wall, two-story type.

This house form at a right angle entirely for that reason it looks minimal and clean.

and even if these houses are old and they look little shabby, they have a stately atmosphere.

   

Third, It is also the modern style of house.

The difference between second and third is third style of house has a roof.

And I guess, but ain't sure, the house including roof has a wide yard mostly.

Because of a roof, it little looks more like a western-house.

These pictures are from a top view.

Almost the whole modern house has stairs outside, a little yard.

And the reason why some houses have a green floor on the top is because of being waterproof.

Lastly, This is the lowest level of house and a shanty.

Mostly senior citizens live in these houses.

This area consists of a narrow and poor alley, dense home, a painting wall and a poor roof.

These are alleys in housing areas.

Because of low level structures and little open facades, those alleys come as a familiarity to us.

But there is the parking problem and it isn't safe.

It's the inside.

Mostly, a porch is used to hang out the washing.

Korean don't spread grass on the yard because it's not suitable weather to spread grass in Korea.

It's former residential and commercial complex.

Lastly
I wish you know what is Korean housing style.
Of course that is similar with Japanese housing but I think, Korean style has humane and rough attraction.
