Since the 1990’s cellular automata urban models have been effective tools to study spontaneous land use change and urban growth and to understand various alternative spatial futures. This research uses the cellular automata urban model Metoronamica to simulate urban growth of Seoul Metropolitan Area up until 2030. In order to consider diverse determinants of urban growth and to see alternative futures, it designs three scenarios such as business as usual, deregulation of greenbelts, and introduction of new high speed rail system GTX and then conducts simulation for each scenario. This study showed a way of understanding urban growth process and of planning support with a dynamic urban growth simulation model. Spontaneous growth without any further investment or regulation is likely to result in continuing leapfrog development. Deregulation of greenbelt could absorb spontaneous growth in further part of the SMA but it would harm previously protected areas near Seoul city. Introduction of GTX would promote polycentric urban structure and mitigates dispersed development pattern. Although the study considered a limited number of scenarios and factors, it brought meaningful implications for the future growth of the SMA.

In this study, the locational features of Namhansanseong(南漢山城) and its temporary palace(行宮) will be clarified with the view of Feng shui. Namhansanseong was a fortress which had rough topographic condition. And the temporary palace that was located in the fortress was the place for King InJo to command the army at the Manchu war of 1636. The location of Namhansanseong and its temporary palace was selected by Feng shui. Especially, several features of Feng shui were applied to the location of temporary palace. However it did not appear the best condition of Feng shui. Because of the limitation that the palace should have located in inner fortress, there was no room to consider sufficient plots. The place on which the palace was built was the best condition among the inner fortress plots. For this reason, the temporary palace was constructed as an royal office rather than a palace that was its own purpose.

A co-working partnership approach among various stakeholders and organizations in neighbourhood regeneration has been emphasized to respond effectively to social, economic, and physical problems in declining neighbourhoods. This study aims to find implications for urban regeneration partnerships building a collaborative governance in neighbourhood regeneration. This study explores the process of establishing a partnership to deliver the ‘Angel Village Festival’ which is one of urban regeneration programmes for the Jeonju test-bed. The festival was suggested from a cultural asset called ‘a faceless angel’. Through the process of preparing and implementing the festival, a coworking network with a range of partners has been organized and developed. The partnership was originally designed to be representative of local communities and developed to involve partners from the public sector, the private sector, and the civic sector. The partnership centered at the governance structure for the on-going development of the festival. Based on this case study, the partnership approach in neighbourhood regeneration is expected to facilitate effective responses to challenges, trust building, and capacity building for local communities.
