This study has the purpose to identify the method for construction and reception of Neo-Rationalism with focus on Aldo Rossi, O. M. Ungers and Rob & Leon Krier. Analysis results were summed up as follows First, First, the typological approach of Neo-Rationalism focused fundamentally on cities. This produces clear difference from the typology deduced by the ideal of nature during enlightenment era and the format of industrial production in modernism period. Such difference is judged as occurring in a perspective to see that history is the ground on which the standard of symbol and determination is presented instead of being just a subject of absolute regression or imitation and the context to admit city. Second, it was found that the contextual admittance of Neo-Rationalism city is expressed through urban characteristics and linguistic method based on the interpretation on the complementary relationship of city and architecture. As for admitting method, Neo-Rationalism city is being admitted in the dimension of regeneration of city fabric, urban application of architectural components and monumental nature of architectural elements, and for establishment of physical shape, city fabric and monumental architecture are converted to typological architectural language and combined together. Third, the typological approach based on the interest in the history of Neo-Rationalism architecture and the perspective on city provides the framework of thinking in city context to regenerate existing urban fabric and locality in modern cities that are being divided so rapidly. In other words, the typological approach can also be referred to in the aspect of public domain formation which is being demanded in tune with enlargement and physical establishment of architecture by urbanization.
