Police station is a one of the governmental organizations to keep the citizen’s daily life safe and convenient. It should be designed to provide convenience for the citizen and reflect policemen’ requirements. From old stations which were built over 30 years ago to today’s ones, however, they have little reflection of the user’s requirements. Therefore, it is needed to investigate the circulation pattern or spatial organization at police station building and to reflect the design requirements into other police building design. This paper conducted a survey on the existing police station buildings to examine he circulation pattern and spatial organization, aiming to propose proper planning guidelines. Results of this study are found as follows: First, the spatial organizations are divided into a civil affairs agency, investigation and information agency, police administration and woman areas. Second, the civil affairs agency is located near road or parking lots for easy approach. Third, the investigation and information part needs collective zoning plan into work similarities. Fourth, it is important to keep the citizen access away and to plan separate area in the site or building for the safety and security part. Finally, the police administration area is close to the office of the chief police and the meeting room because the chief officer needs to meet the police administrator or discuss the other citizens at any time.
