Abstract
Hans Schmidt, a pioneer of Swiss modern movement, transited his thought on the city into minimum dwelling in 1920's. In articles written in former half of 1920's, he asserts to form city based on economic activities of citizen. It is foreseen that this generates his idea on the minimum dwelling, as a result of calculation of economic activities of the human's life. This paper aims to clarify how he archived this transition; firstly, analyzing his articles and manuscripts on the city and the minimum dwelling chronologically, and then, understanding Hans Bernoulli's thought on urban planning as a background of this transition.
