High-rise housing is being built in increasingly densely populated urban residential areas in Tokyo, Japan. On the other hand, detached houses are built on small, subdivided sites. In urban residential areas where detached houses are lined up, many elements related to daily life are located near roadside space and spill out onto the road. This is a distinctive modern urban residential landscape. The purpose of this study is to get closer to the reality of urban residential life. For that, we will consider the characteristics and roles of elements related to daily life that can be observed in many areas around roadside space in an urban residential area lined with detached houses, in urban living environments. This study focuses on the detached residential area of Bunkyo Ward. A field survey will be conducted to investigate the amount of elements related to daily life that can be observed from the road. In addition, we will conduct a questionnaire survey of residents in the survey area regarding their use of and awareness of the roadside space. Finally, we will investigate the relationship between lifestyle factors and urban residential life from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives.
Life elements, small site, roadside space, city life, lifestyle consciousness.
