This thesis aims at estimating the program, capacity and size of necessary spaces of public facilities for the modern performing arts at the early stage of the facility planning. Concretely through the analysis of new 13 examples of public facilities for the performing arts we proposed the method of estimating not only the size of each necessary spaces but also the total floor area by piling up the needed functional spaces.

In this paper, the concept of the image structure was made clearer, and the research on the poetic-image structure was executed. The research technique and the procedure were also established through investigating. In addition, the validity of the idea concerning the characteristic of poetic-image structure was verified. As a result, eight types of the poetic image structure were found. The type of the poetic image structure was named 'poetry pattern of the image'. The hypothesis concerning a poetic image structure was verified though not quite satisfactorily.

&nbsp;Brooklyn Navy Yard (BNY) is a rare example of adaptively reuse of historic industrial site into urban manufacturing enclave, unlike repurposing it for residential or commercial uses. In my previous research (Morokuma et al. 2016), by using BNY as a case study, the background and measures of revitalization of the old shipyard as manufacturing hub was revealed. Despite the relatively low interest in preservation on the operator's side, authenticity of the historic resources has been maintained to some extent due to the frequent involvement of the New York State Historic Preservation Office (NY SHPO).<br>&nbsp;In this paper, by using the same case, SHPO's involvement is extensively studied to analyze the roles and effect of its review system based on National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). In the existing Japanese literatures on the U.S. preservation system, the general roles and review system as well as its National Register have been studied, however, actual use and effects of reviews through the case studies have not been fully explored. Additionally, the use of preservation covenant in transfer of nationally owned land was applied to the BNY, but this preservation tool has not been researched in the academic field, even in the U.S. The research method is the interviews to the SHPO and operator of BNY (BNYDC) as well as the preservation experts in NYC, and analysis of the applications and correspondences between SHPO and BNYDC.<br>&nbsp;In BNY, the covenant was applied to a partial land and introduced as mitigation to ensure preservation of historic resources in the future redevelopment by having BNYDC gain permit from SHPO whenever they touch on the historic resources, which increases the level of SHPO's involvement compared with the regular review. The process and outcome of the review triggered by covenant and those of regular reviews by SHPO are similar, but the use of covenant over NAVSTA site virtually led the BNYDC to pursue pro-preservation redevelopment approach unlike the Admirals Row site.<br>&nbsp;This study revealed that within BNY there were twelve redevelopment projects which were realized through rehabilitation or demolition of the historic resources and most of them were reviewed by SHPO due to BNYDC's reliance on state and federal funding in addition to the covenant. Lack of finance of BNYDC caused this reliance on public grants, which triggered SHPO's frequent reviews. Even though SHPO did not necessarily succeed in preserving all resources, it succeeded in identifying the underrepresented historic resources, proving the significance of BNY as a historic district by taking advantage of series of reviews, and led BNYDC to register BNY to make its significance more official.<br>&nbsp;In conclusion, although SHPO's regulatory power over historic resources is relatively weak compared with that of municipal governments, it is still quite effective in the recognition of underrepresented historic places like BNY through the series of reviews triggered by public funding and covenant. At the same time, having SHPO involved in BNY was quite important in raising awareness to historic resources and safeguarding them to some extent, as the city's preservation authority was not interested in protecting BNY as a historic district due to the political reason or lack of constituencies. The benefits of covenant such as facilitating pro-preservation redevelopment, giving oversight to all potential historic resources, and mandating new owners to maintain them during interim period, in exchange of transfer of public properties were recognized in the case of the BNY.

With the construction of streetcar line 'Yunokawa-Sen' in early Taisho era, the suburb, in the east area of Hakodate, had been developed. The men who had developed this area in early stage were philanthropists. Most of the residential areas were developed linearly along the road of the former field, which ran at right angles to 'Yunokawa-sen'. The establishment of Housing Unions in Hakodate started just before the peak of the rate of increase of housing areas. 'Hakodate-Jutaku-Kumiai' had a remarkable influence on the development 'Bunka-Mura'. In 'Midorimachi-Dori', dwellings by housing unions initiated the owner-occupation. Moreover the residents of housing unions built up sustainable community as mentioned on several newspapers.

Poetic-imagery means a special and environmental element which gives rise to a strong impression and activation of consciousness. We cant find any precedent of the study on poetic-imagery in the past papers. It is important that we search a study method of poetic-imagery by ourself. In this paper we tried to look below the surface of the poetic-imagery and search the method from the view point of the image structure. As a result, we acquired the guide of the study method.

The purpose of this paper is to explain the background of abolishing the area division and that fact, focusing on the application of the area division in the cities of less than 100, 000 people. As the character of the area division in the cities of less than 100, 000 people, the area division was applied by many of industrial cities. And, it was clarified that the common features of Arao-City and Kainan-City ware population decrease and industrial decline. In addition, it was clarified that the farmland diversion after the area division has abolished increased.

The purpose of the study was to reveal the fundamental structure from multiplex cultural landscapes in mountain settlements with terraced rice fields, called Tanada in Japan.The nucleus approach was used in comparing two different settlement patterns; Tsuzura and Bunda. Tsuzura have complicated irrigation water network in vast Tanada with farmhouses clustered together beside the fields, while for Bunda the irrigation system is ordered in a rigid pattern along the valley Tanada with the farmhouses scattered within the fields. The irrigation system allows farmhouses to be located to avoid contamination of irrigation water. Thus farmhouse location is influenced by agricultural water system.

&nbsp;In this paper, We modeled a method of idea forming as a designing support tool which we used &ldquo;form expression that is not like a conscious intention (automatic drawing the following, &ldquo;A-dw&rdquo;)&rdquo; positively for a stage in early period of design (the following, &ldquo;A-dw's method of idea forming&rdquo;). And we reported the substantial result that we analyzed by design experiment using this method. We repeated time savings at the beginning from 60 seconds by preliminary experiment 1, and tested drawing time per one sheet to draw in five minutes for 20 students majoring architecture design. As a result, we judged the most suitable time for drawing "A-dw" as six seconds (50 sheets). At this time, we could confirm a phenomenon to repeat similar drawing (the following, &ldquo;chain drawing&rdquo;) in continual drawing.<br>&nbsp;By preliminary experiments 2 and 3, the usability of the idea method for the subject, time allocation of each STAGE(01 - 04) , on the premise with the conscious "the drawing that was unrelated to intention-like problem", "A-dw" assuming the problem explanation was made and reference method of "A-dw" from influence on STAGE02 by "the chain", above-mentioned four points from inspection. As a result, I set by the flow of the "A-dw&rsquo;s method of idea forming "(Fig11).<br>&nbsp;We compare (This experiment) subject group to apply the A-dw&rsquo;s method of idea forming (the following, "ON team") with the subject group designing it freely (the following, "OFF team") in at the time of a design. We assumed the problem like the preliminary experiment, organized into two teams by 12 students for 24 architectural design students and tested a design. And, for the last proposal, we evaluated it by two kinds of following methods by five business designers who did not know the contents except the problem at all.<br>&nbsp;1)Rank scale evaluation: we added up a mark of the last proposals to make an order them,<br>&nbsp;2)Five phases of six items evaluations : we performed five phases of evaluations about six items [context] / [novelty] / [concreteness] / [form] / [space] / [expression]<br><br>&nbsp;The findings are as follows.<br>&nbsp;1)ON team which employed "A-dw&rsquo;s method of idea forming" had high assessment score in the final proposal about both an order standard evaluation and Five phases of six items evaluations, an order standard evaluation, and an evaluation of [novelty] was particularly high in six items.<br>&nbsp;2)ON team compared with OFF team, scored higher in the final proposal at the average points of idea. It is thought that the early idea emission (A-dw) promoted the emission of the subsequent idea.<br>&nbsp;3)Contents of "Starting point Idea(Sp-I)", there is a clear difference, ON team [Non architecture (Other than building relations)] &hArr; OFF team [Architecture (Building relations)].<br>&nbsp;4)In higher group of ON teams, compared with lower group had higher Ratio to convert into a new form and concept from "A-dw" which was similar to [Have no concept].<br>&nbsp;In other words drawing not to be connected to the contents which are targeted for a design(problem) like [Have no concept] directly is easy to lead conversion to the new recognition and interpretation that are like "unexpected discovery", and it is thought that it was more likely to lead to the high suggestion of the evaluation.

This paper aims to elucidate the generation of the site vision in Le Corbusier's architectural conception concerning the hill of Ronchamp. His visit to the site inspires the first concept concerning the chapel, the esplanade and the campanile in order to materialize a "response to the landscape". However, some concepts will change their meanings and his complex vision influenced by the landscape 'from the site' will shift to the vision of a chapel united 'with the site'. Thus, the architect finds out the totality of the "architectural place" where site and building interact.

Pompeii had a grid pattern of narrower streets, which were suitable for one-way traffic. On this paper, the traffic-controlling is discussed, followed by the reconstruction of carts and some impediments related to the carts such as stepping-stones, public fountains, and parking animals/carts, and town gates. The main cart-traffic artery can be detected, finally, besides the broad streets called Cardo and Decumanus. Carts running in Pompeii: on the narrow streets a 4-wheeled carts were severely to be restricted to a minimum and the use of certain 2-wheeled carts encouraged. In addtion to the 4- or 2- wheeled carts, which should be preceded by a 'runner' (cursor) in Pompeii, pack donkeys and men carrying packs were also possible. The runner on the cart, who controlled the cart using the brake, was also definitely need, because of the slopes quite steeply in that town. Impediments on the streets: the stepping stone and public fountains were physical impediments against the cart traffic. Parked animals and carts, which also partially obstructed the streets, are negative evidence of well-regulated lane traffic. On a distribution maps of tethering holes of parked animals cut into sidewalks (Fig. 14) the designated find occurs in sufficient numbers and they spread for meaningful patterns to emerge as below. 1) All observed streets have holes cut into sidewalks on both sides except for a unique case of the southern part of Via di Porta Nocera. 2) Outside of the gates, there is no example of the holes. This means that animals could be quite popular in the transportation inside of the gates. 3) Some areas that form throughroutes to the Vesuvio, Sarno, and Nocera Gates tended to have a high frequency with which these holes are found, as well as a high occurrence at the wide streets around the Forum. 4) The holes in the north-east area of Pompeii occurred more frequently than in the south-west area. We possibly overestimate the capacity of Strada Stabia for transportation and underestimate that of Strada Consolare without any stepping-stones and public fountains as obstacles against cart traffic (Fig. 9). Gates: the town gates of Pompeii were built to a common design, narrowed to only one lane and providing one-way alternating traffic, except for the Ercolano Gate. That means the carts entering and exiting the town through the gates were stopped, even though the streets leading to the gates were enough to accommodate two lanes of cart traffic moving in opposite directions. An attempt has been made to classify these gates not by shape, but function, such classification do much to aid our understanding of the cart traffic. This comprehensive and orderly classification of their 5 types in Fig. 18: the highest is the Ercolano Gate build on almost flat ground with two-way lanes, two sideways, two passing places on both sides, and holding area on the outside. Main cart-traffic artery: Strada Consolare shows a few of design feature directly related to their function as the main traffic artery, most importantly to provide secure one-way alternating traffic, such as good visibility and waiting places. Cart drivers chose this route connecting to Via della Fortuna and Strada Stabia rather than the Strada Stabia leading to or from the Vesuvio Gate. Pompeian local government keep cart traffic moving not by standardising the construction of vehicles and streets, and not by controlling or regulating the behaviour of drivers either. But it forced cart drivers to follow the route they intended by avoiding snarled, inconvenient, and inefficient traffics.

The streets in Pompeii were orderly structures, with lava for paving of its roadway, sidewalks, step stones, and ruts; and a conspicuous feature of the whole site is the elaborate and carefully planned system of drainage. The drainage from rainwater could cause slight undulation of the surface as water seeks its own level. Here, the water flows on the streets were manipulated by Pompeian builders, but their manipulation depended on human technology to slightly rise or lower the surface and thus to control the flow. When public bathes and aqueduct providing huge mount of water, were built, sometimes the mound was constructed by piling an artificial slope against the original configuration of the ground, and the swelling or settlement of the surface on the intersections of the drainage routes, such as Horconius crossing, must have been carefully planned to avoid overflow and standing water. The Pompeian streets appear to be a good example of the application of appropriate technology, this paper stresses the planning of the drainage system in connection with the design of its urban fabric.

After the Taisho enthronement, the buildings used for the ceremony were granted to various places in Kyoto.This paper shows the analysis of how these buildings in educational facilities were converted.The time of Taisho enthronement was also the time of expanding and arranging an administration of school education.After the enthronement, dismantled buildings were granted to various educatioal institution such as elementary schools, junior high schools and high schools. When looking at the conversion of granted buildings we can see there was a different attitude of each institution toward the buildings. Their differences may have been caused by the each institution's reaction to Taisho enthronement.

I have examined in this wish documents and sutra,petitioners and masters on munafuda(dedication board) of Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples in the northern part of Kyushu and adjacent area. Briefly speaking, wish documents are nothing more than the records of diverse desires and yearnings of human beings.They are either social or personal.The former is the wishes for a victory in battle of the lord,a peaceful social condition and an abundant crop.The latter, long life,many children,and health. At the temples of the Nichiren sect, the beginning of quotations of the sutra on munafuda is "Nanmyouho-rengekyo" (meaning T 11 convert to Saddharma-pundarika. ). At other sects of Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, mostly "Hokkekyo" (Saddharma-pundarika)is quoted. "Daimuryojyukyo" (Suhhavati-sutra) is also quoted. Gods and goddesses of the defense, the chief priest of Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples, or people under the protection of the same community deity etc. are written on munafuda as petitioners and masters.

Not a few munafudas (dedication boards) of Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples have except the main clause a name of god and Buddha. Most of the gods on the munafudas are either a guardian deity of architecture or the ancestral god of craft, or Mizuhanomenomikoto (the goddess of water); all are connected with carpentry or craftmanship. Buddhas on the munafudas we usually Indras, Brahmas, or Devas of the four directions. And A few munafudas have a mythical Amonofutodamanomikoto. Quite understandably, no Buddhas appear on the munafudas after the Meiji era, when the separation of Shintoism and Buddhism was proclaimed and enforced by the government. The most common names on munafudas after the Meiji era are Yafunekukunochinomikoto and Yafunetoyoukehimenomikoto (the god and the goddess of carpentry) and Taokihooinomikoto and Hikosashirinomikoto (both the guardian deities of craftmen). Buddhas appear up to the Edo period from the middle century.

Since a fire is the most dreaded disaster for a wooden building, signs and symbols of fire prevention are commonly used on "munafuda" (dedication board). These sings are, for instance "[figure]" symbolizing water, or ones which stand for the sun, the moon and stars. Especially, stars of 28 hotels are popular, such as "△" representing the star of the triangular seat, that is, the north heaven. The Chinese character 'seal' is used as a magical sign of 'cutting of a seal' and also of 'enclosing something inside' ; sometimes the mere symbol "[figure]" is applied in the same occasions."[figure]" occasionally symbolizes four kings. The sign "[figure]", meaning 'nine characters are cut' in Yin and Yang theory, is used. Again, in Buddhist temples, munafuda registers "卍" symbols.

Nobuko Nakahara is one of the prominent architects who led the postwar housing design and established Hayashi-Yamada-Nakahara, Architects and Preservation in 1958. In this paper, it is aimed at comprehensively clarifying the design process and the background of “Chogakuin temple (1962)” with the HP shell roof which was completed just 4 years after her office was founded. She entered the Ikebe Laboratory of the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo as a technical research student, and in the midst of the Controversies on Japanese tradition that involved Kiyoshi Ikebe, she was in charge of designing works “Number 20” and “Number 28.” In addition, the Ikebe Laboratory was actively working on a shell structure which was a new technology at that time. And, Nakahara closely related herself to “Numazu City Public Hall(1953)” designed by Ikebe Laboratory, and became close to Hoji Nukushina who was indirectly involved in structural design and Takumi Orimoto, a structural designer of “Number 38 (1958)”. Buildings adopting HP shell in Japan were built from around 1952. The number of shingles of the HP shell accounts for mostly one which constitutes one unit by one sheet and one which constitutes one unit by four sheets. As a new construction of reinforced concrete construction, “Chogakuin temple” is a work that Nobuko Nakahara first worked on after the establishment of the office and was published in a magazine titled “Integration of HP Shell and Tradition.” Chief priest and Parishioners wanted a warm and soft atmosphere. Therefore, Nakahara responded to the demand by adopting "Disconnected HP shell, " for example, by curving the edge beam of the shell. At the time, there were no roofs of exactly the same shape as this. The roof of the main “Chogakuin temple” is a combination of 4 HP shells, and its roof is supported by 4 pillars. The beams and pillars have an equilateral triangular cross-sectional shape, and they handle rainwater with grooves in them. Works that used “Disconnected HP shell” in times when structural expressionism is popular, “Chogakuin temple” is the only example, other than the saddle shell. The reason why Nobuko Nakahara was able to complete the design of “Chogakuin temple” to integrate HP shell and the Japanese tradition in 1962, the following could be noted. 1. She learned about modern architectural thinking from Kiyoshi Ikebe so she could understand Japanese traditional design and structural expressionism. 2. She experienced the Controversies on Japanese tradition in Ikebe Laboratory and others, and established a basic way of thinking against this problem. She accepted positively the desire of Chief priest and Parishioners while designing this temple. 3. In the Ikebe Laboratory which was motivated to apply the new technology, she learned about HP shell, gained network with structural designer Hoji Nukushina and others, and completed the “Chogakuin temple” design under the support of them. The way of thinking of Kiyoshi Ikebe about tradition simply did not adopt the Japanese element as it was. On the Contrary, it was going beyond tradition using new materials, construction methods, and techniques. As a disciple of Kiyoshi Ikebe, Nobuko Nakahara followed his idea with the cooperation of others and applied them to “Chogakuin temple” in its realization.

From the second half of the 18th century to the early part of the 19th century, "the Aryan theory" was established. The first Governor-General of Bengal, W. Hastings applied this theory in his India administration. After he retired from his part for the Governor-General, he was impeached by the House of Commons. In 1800, "The Hindoo Temple at.Melchet Park" was built to tell future Hastings's administration and the retrieval of his lost honor for the Governor-General. Hastings had the Aryan theory, which was reflected the inscriptions, the architecture, and the landscape at Melchet Park by the designer T. Daniell.

This study attempts to examine characteristics of traditional housing group in Kudus urban area and its altering tendency, in order to consider possibility for observation. We found that: -Building alteration comprises change of carved wooden elements using contemporary materials, replacement of wooden-traditional houses with brick-ordinary ones, or, their removal to be empty lots; and replacement of yards with buildings; -Area alteration compriscs decrease of wooden houses, increase of brick houses, and increase of empty lots, with greater tendency along the street than in kampung; -In the last three decades, the area has lost 15% of its wooden houses due to natural decay, partial or whole sale; only 3.5% of the remaining are complete. Accordingly we recommend considerations for preservation.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the theory of house design by Mamoru Yamada, especially through the design of “Tsurumi residence” in 1931. Before designing this house, Yamada had been in Europe to participate in the international congress of CIAM and to visit several housing projects in 1929-1930, which was reported as an article “Minimum size of living house” in 1931. And after designing Tsurumi residence, he wrote about the past, present and future of Japanese houses in his another article “House of tomorrow” which was published in 1943. In this study, through the consideration of the relationship between the design of Tsurumi residence and contents of these two articles written by him, his theory of house design and his methods to make house comfortable were extracted.
