The elderly feel discomfort in the kitchen due to aging. To solve these problems, this study suggests smart service patterns considering the aging steps of the elderly in the kitchen. Behavior pattern of the elderly is important to suggest these smart service patterns. Therefore, the suggested service patterns based on the behavior patterns of the elderly in the kitchen are classified by the period of independence, semi-dependence, and fully dependence. In period of full independence, the smart services of the kitchen are needed in more types and dependency. The results of this study were as follows ; 1)The service pattern of SV1 is Fire/gas leak detection${\rightarrow}$temperature/humidity control${\rightarrow}$healthcare/emergency system${\rightarrow}$convenience service. This pattern is aimed at solving potential problems that may occur during cook and having a meal. 2)The service pattern of SV4 is temperature/humidity control${\rightarrow}$lighting control${\rightarrow}$healthcare, medical examination${\rightarrow}$emergency call${\rightarrow}$smart mirror${\rightarrow}$remote conversation service. This pattern offers entertainment and leisure for the elderly individuals in order to relieve loneliness. 3)The service pattern of SV6 is emergency system${\rightarrow}$heating water/ventilation control${\rightarrow}$smart furniture${\rightarrow}$healthcare, medical examination${\rightarrow}$emergency call${\rightarrow}$temperature/humidity/lighting control ${\rightarrow}$remote control/time. This pattern offers healthcare and controls the interior environmental conditions. This study implies a new perspective to design smart kitchen that would encompass security, healthy, convenience for the elderly.
