The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of space domain distance (low vs. high) on the experience of the "Aha! Moment" or "Heritage," as well as on the perception of space attractiveness and the formation of place attachment. To achieve this, two upcycled spaces in Korea were selected to explore my responses to different space domain distances through experiments.
For the research method, face-to-face surveys were conducted to collect data, followed by analysis using linear regression and Hayes’ (2013) Process Model 6. In the study, the Bank of Korea Money Museum and F1963 Complex Cultural Space were compared to validate the results.
The results showed that a smaller space domain distance (low vs. high) in space upcycling enhances the occurrence of the "Aha! Moment" and the perception of space attractiveness, leading to a stronger sense of place attachment (as observed in Study A). Additionally, Study B founds that a larger space domain distance (high vs. low) in space upcycling enhances the experience of "Heritage" and the perception of space attractiveness, resulting in an increased sense of place attachment.
In conclusion, this study emphasizes that the way I experience space upcycling may vary based on the space domain distance (low vs. high), and underscores the need to develop effective strategies for successful space upcycling projects.
