The purpose of this study was to implement a mobile application to evaluate the residential performance of Hanoks anytime and anyplace free of time and space constraints made possible by mobile devices such as smart phones. To effectively evaluate the performance of Hanoks, the mobile application includes architectural information and help functions to ease the usability by the general public. In addition, it is designed to be intuitively understood through the presentation of field photos through empirical cases in line with the functional characteristics of smart phones. To test the functionality of the mobile application, a field evaluation was conducted at the Set-yi-seo Literature Center in Eunpyeong Hanok Village. The findings of this study provide a basis for using smart phone based applications for evaluating buildings such as Hanoks in the future. It can be used as a model for developing future user-friendly performance evaluation applications for public Hanok research and development.
