The aim of this study is to develop the design review checklists about pubic open space attached to building. For this purpose, the design characteristics and use behavior of ten pubic open spaces located in Kwangju city are preliminary examined in detail. The design characteristics are analysed in aspects of location, size, visuality, microclimate, boundaries and transitions, seating, pubic art and service facility of pubic open space. Uses and activities within pubic open space are examined in aspects of the number of users, use time, activity types.
