Contemporary society gets entangled into cultural hybridity of the world. The hybridity turns into reinterpretation on the concept of "boundary" which was traditionally regarded fixed and invariable space. Therefore, this study examines the change of spatial composition and methodology in contemporary architecture through the 'boundary' concept. The original meaning of "boundary" is a limited outline or an isolated line. The idea of "boundary", however, has been understood fluid space or linking passage of different fields since Post-modernism. Like this, the boundary concept has been diversely changed according to the phase and the value of the times. And there are three types of boundary concept. First, the boundary of ‘defined identity’ which completely rules out heterogeneity and difference, second, the boundary of ‘base of difference’which is based on decontructive thought of Derrida, third, the boundary of ‘difference itself‘ which suggests ‘abstract machine’ as a result of everlasting de-formalization.
