This paper is a study of the relationship between the appearance of the characters and the writer's writing movement in the Cai hou board script. In typeface design, the stroke is a clue for interpreting and expressing the originality of the characters while minimizing the variations in the appearance of the characters. Typeface designers interpret their styles by imagining the brush strokes and writing movement. The Cai hou board typeface is predates the establishment of the brush stroke method. To extract clues for interpret the style that replaces the brush stroke method, the appearance of the characters was observed by tracing. The results suggest that the movements associated with the natural grip of the hand may have served as a guide for interpreting the style and unifying the writing movement.

Nowadays along with rapid economic development, regional cultures that have been rooted in the region are declining. On the other hand, it is necessary to revitalize the region by utilizing local culture and resources. This study targets "Maiwai", a special clothing for fishermen born and developed in Chiba. Based on the digitization of the patterns of the Maiwai, the purpose was to present through practice how to utilize resources that contribute to improving awareness and sharing of the celebrations. As a result of the above efforts, the possibilities for regional revitalization through digitization and utilization of Maiwai were extracted as follows. (1)Actualization of Maiwai through communication with local residents, (2)Potential for self-reliant regional revitalization, (3)Presenting processes for community sharing, and (4)Continuation of traditional crafts through cooperation with craftsmen.

The purpose of this study is to extract Maiwai's cultural characteristics based on Maiwai's pattern form, its typification, and the classification of designs by utilizing digital data on Maiwai pattern in the Awa area of Chiba Prefecture. The following points became clear as a result of the investigation.
(1)Various elements exist in the patterns of Maiwai, and they are combined based on several forms to form an image.
(2)Through quantification theory type Ⅲ and cluster analysis, the 8 types were obtained.
(3)The pattern of Maiwai represents the characteristics of the region, and each konya has its own personality in the detailed design.
To sum it up, Maiwai clearly reflects the diverse thoughts and aspirations of people who have tried to portray the good life.

Human body images called "Neijing-tu" were preserved in various fields of printing from the Tang Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty. Through exploring the origin, background of printing culture and characteristics of paper surface of ancient, printed objects, we were able to identify the following points: The "Neijing-tu" are mainly preserved in Taoist books, medical books, encyclopedias, and other fields printings. This paper discusses the visual communication design characteristics of "Neijing-tu" through analyzing the changes of layout and image elements, centering on "Neijing-tu" in existing printing materials.

Literature survey and questionnaire survey were conducted in order to clarify the design requirements when developing a honeybee dedicated hive that meets the needs of beekeepers. Literature review confirmed that the most important hive in the history of hive design was the Langstroth hive, which was announced in 1851. It turned out that the main reason why these beehives are still widely used today is that it has a movable nest plate inside and a structure that allows the internal space to be freely expanded and contracted. A questionnaire survey on domestic demands and performance of beehives revealed that professional beekeepers value honey productivity and quality, while hobbyist beekeepers seek workability and good appearance. What is required in domestic beekeeping is the development of hives specialized for hobby beekeeping. Beekeepers wanted beehives that were small or light, blended in with the surrounding landscape, had the ability to protect from rain and expand horizontally.

The objective of this study is to verify the hybrid WS for the city development WS for updating the future vision of Kosei-dori on Kosei dori, Okazaki City, and to understand its effects and problems.
In order to understand the opinions and evaluations of the future vision created in 2020, we conducted an awareness survey through hearings. A preliminary experiment was conducted to sort out the conditions for non-face-to-face participants to have the same opportunities to speak as face-to-face participants in the hybrid WS. Furthermore, in order to clarify the effects and problems of the hybrid WS, we conducted a demonstration experiment comparing the hybrid WS and the conventional WS.
From the awareness survey, we grasped the values of the owners of the roadside stores for town development. From the preliminary experiment, the conditions for smooth discussion were organized. From the demonstration experiment, the characteristics of the conventional WS and the hybrid WS were grasped from the evaluation of the participants and the analysis of the deliverables.
