In the background of rapid urban development in China, several detached houses have been built. The style, local surroundings, and other physical characteristics of these houses are constantly changing, which provides ample samples for the study of the visual preference evaluation of Chinese detached houses. With the detached houses in Jiangsu province, China, as the research object, the architectural style, height-width ratio, window-wall ratio, and local surroundings were set as the physical characteristics of detached houses. A photo stimulation experiment was conducted with different types of participants, the findings of which were then collected and analyzed. The study indicates that architectural style, height-width ratio, window-wall ratio, and local surroundings are the main factors that influence people's visual preference evaluation of detached houses; people of different categories produce different visual preference evaluations of detached houses. This study offers a valuable reference for the design of Chinese detached houses.

“…Tiny house villages for the homeless are increasingly springing up across the country as an innovative means of addressing homelessness (Figure 1). It is unclear what is precisely driving this movement, although it might be surmised that it is a result of the current trendiness of tiny houses in popular media paired with the recognition that they potentially offer an affordable housing solution (Finley 2003;Heben 2014;Mingoya 2015;Fowler 2017;Coleman 2018;Evans 2018bEvans , 2019. It is also unclear exactly how tiny house villages are being used to address homelessness.…”

“…In response to surging demand for small urban houses, shrinking residential stability, and increasing burden of housing expenses of single and two-person households in Korea, the government revised the Housing Act and introduced the Urban Residential Housing (URH) program at the end of 2009. The URH represents studio-type housing, and row housing and multi-household housing in a complex with less than 300 households constructed in urban areas Specifically, a dwelling unit of studio-type housing shall not exceed 50 m 2 , while it is equipped with an independent bathroom and kitchen; both row housing and multi-household housing in a complex can be built up to five floors. It aimed to secure residential stability, residential amenities in the community, and to provide a plentiful supply of affordable small housing.…”

Small housing has gained prominence in the housing market due to substantial shifts of both population and household structures in Korea. The study aims to examine the spatial clustering pattern of urban residential houses (URHs) in terms of the spatial statistics, and analyze the impacts of both locational and neighborhood residential factors on the formation of the spatial clustering pattern in the Seoul metropolitan area. It is found that the URHs represent a significant spatial clustering pattern based on the census tracts. The hotspots are mostly found in the outskirts of Seoul, where the development of small houses has been concentrated for ten years. Also, both locational and neighborhood residential factors have significant effects on the hotspot formation of the URH. The hotspots are more likely to be found in areas having many available sites for development, high demand for habitation, and high expected profits from developing small residences. Another significant factor is access to public transit, amenities, and employment centers. Therefore, it is necessary to design a rent subsidy program for potential residents and to encourage the development of housing in nearby hotspots with relatively lower land values. It is also important to establish policies and strategies for planning the housing supply and managing the residential environment in low-rise residential areas.
