"Colonel" type. "Commission" type and "Noncommissioned" type. To find between the suitable area utilization and the designed unit area and finally reach suggestions for the flat improvement. The study collected data by using observations, documentary search, interviews and questionnaires. 92 units of the example including 16 units from the 'Colonel' type, 24 units from the 'Commission' type and 52 units from the 'Noncommissioned' type. The physicals of three unit types: (1) 'Colonel' type area is 121 m2., the unit has 2 levels; in the upper floor has 2 bedrooms, 2 balconies and 1 bathroom.
