Abstract
In this study, we surveyed the actual conditions of facade greening with climbing plants for detached houses in Kyoto City. The percentage of detached houses with exterior space was 85% (N=222), and that of detached houses without exterior space was 15% (N=222). The scenes using facade greening were categorized into 4 types, street type, drive type, garage type, and water way type. We found out that the forms of facade greening were classified into 33 types. The typical cases were concrete block or brick wall combined with fence (N=40), concrete block or brick wall combined with gate (N=38), concrete block or brick wall (N=33), and wall surface of house (N=20). As a result of analyzing the combination of forms and scenes, the functions of the landscaping were considered to be an important role in street, drive, and garage. Analyzing the combination of the characteristics of using plants, scenes, and forms, we found out the various combinations of the properties of climbing plants and facade. The most important thing about this study is that facade greening was carried out at the various forms and scenes in detached houses.
