The aim of this paper is to clarify the housing idea for commons envisioned by the Housing Loan Corporation at the time of its foundation. For permeation of a rational construction-process and a house for commons in high-quality, the corporation forwarded the project on preparing the drawings of standardized houses soon after its foundation. In this project, the drawings were not only prepared within the corporation, including the architects' projects requested, but also collected through the design competition. As a result, two publications, in which 295 types of houses were selected as a recommended standard, were offered to the public market for the people convenience in 1951. In these drawings, the conservative trend on house-planning is dominant whatever some radical projects were employed. Therefore, its tendency is recognized to have reflected the contemporary concept of the corporation to the appropriate house type for commons.
