This case study examines the history and development of small housing units for at-risk youths. Hokkaido Katei Gakko ("Hokkaido Family School"), government sanctioned residential facility located in the northernmost area of Japan, was established in 1914 to create a home-like environment for youth rehabilitation. The "School" consists of about half a dozen small housing units each run by a married couple who provide care for as well as live with the at-risk teenager and pre-teen boys in the unit. Our analysis traces the long history of the school by studying the past building plans and interviewing staff members, past and present. Particular attention was paid to the units' architectural design and actual use. The buildings fulfill dual roles: as a family home for the couple (some have children) and as a dormitory. A balance has to be struck between securing privacy and providing supervision that facilitates resocialization, for example. Focusing on the buildings and its use provides a close and concrete look at how staff and youths interact in their daily life.
