Abstract
The purpose of this report was to draw factors that influenced the living space. In this paper, first of all, analyses were made on the living conditions.
The results were as follows :
1) The living-room's planning connection with D and K was the factor that decided the place of the living space and whether it was also used as a drawing room.
2) The way of life (the style of room and the dwelling style) were changed according to the seasons. The style of room and the dwelling style were related to each other. Is correlation in the case of the detached-house was higher than that in the multiple-house, and it was higher in summer than winter. But the freer arrangement of living space was gradually becoming popular among young generations.
3) There was a tendency people in the detached-house set big furnitures (for example “Ousetsu-set”) in the living space and their ways of life were more uniform than those of the multiple-house. And especially in the case they had “Ousetsu-set, ” their ways of life were in Western-style, and in the case they had furnitures such as the sofa, the table, and the tables in Japanese-style, freer arrangement was found. And in Western-style much furnitures were apt to be set.
