To meet the demands of our rapidly changing society, the development of efficient work space is an unavoidable social element and mission that must be resolved. Following the trend of the times, since 2010, in an attempt to move away from a labor intensive industrialization environment our nation has been implementing a new smart work policy as a solution to address this issue, but the reality is that rather than this newly implemented policy serving as a work model that can be applied to the infrastructure of all industries, it merely is a simple manifestation of an office environment work model policy centered around state enterprises and therefore does not actually help the nation as a whole move away from a labor intensive industrialization environment.
Therefore in this research, the theory on multifunctional smart work center spaces and the analytical characteristics of smart work center spaces that have been made available for each work industry type were derived. As a result it is considered that a program centric space for flexible work in the form of simple business support has not yet been made available. By analyzing case studies of developed nations such as the US, Japan, UK and the Netherlands, which lead the advancement of work space and by derivative analysis specific to the type of space category, the spatial characteristics manifested in each nation were defined.
These spatial characteristics are not simply characteristics that need to be taken into consideration when forming multifunctional smart work centers in Korea, but are characteristics that must included in professional programs specific to usage types and objectives, and this research proposes that when these characteristics are appropriately integrated into smart work centers, an increase in the utility of spaces is possible.
