Abstract

Consideration of Yasuhei Nagaoka’s design achievements clarifies the relationship between the designer’s employment position, the places where he carried out his work, and the number of designs by classifying the different phases of his career. His career is classified and his employment positions clarified by arranging his design achievements according to the places where he carried out his design work during specific periods of time. This classification indicates that he had almost no achievements during the more than 20 years he was employed at the Tokyo prefectural government office. When he became part of the professional staff of the Tokyo City office, the classification reveals that he designed for many places. His achievements for Akita in his later years as a member of staff at the Tokyo prefectural office greatly influenced this thing. The quantity of the park design of each place decreased when Nagaoka resigned from the Tokyo City office. He was continually involved with the design of many personal gardens, but his achievements in the suburbs of Tokyo came to account for most. In addition to his park designs, he designed the personal gardens of distant places as well. However, it is predicted that this reduced the number of his garden designs of distant places, as is evident in the decreasing number of his park design projects.
