旧武士居住地における明治以降の住宅平面型の特徴とその変容課程に関する研究 : 金沢市におけるケース・スタディ NO.5

Abstract

Continued from the last theses, this paper analyzes the patterns and its evolution process of the popular houses in the built-up area where lower Samurai classes had ever inhabited in Edo era. Conclusions are as follows, The housing plan of footman class as the prototype had been prescribed for by the housing frontage. And, the characteristics of these traditional housing plans (Genkan type) was that the formal drawing room ("Zashiki") had been constituted of as the main room. The basical constitution of this housing plan had been succeeded to the new housing type with the receding entrance (Genkan Kotai type). The entrance in the latter type had receded about 1 "Ken" (1.8 meters) into the main structure. As the result, the alcove beside the approach way had been formulated in front of the porch. As the housing frontage had become narrower since Taisyo era, the smaller houses had been provided. But, the latter housing plan with the receding entrance has been able to apply for these environments. One of characteristics of this housing type was that the kitchen had been stretching forward and independent from the main structure. After all, the kitchen had been able to gain its necessary space by increasing its depth, while achieving the frontage saving. Therefore, the houses with the receding entrance, Genkan Kotai Type had been holding an advantageous position since Taisho era.
