Research on the design process of Shizuoka Shinbun Takamatsu Apartment

Abstract

Abstract Takamatsu House for the newspaper Shizuoka Shimbun was to be a corporate residence consisting of family and single apartments. The premises are a stone's throw from Totoiseki. The planning for the project took place between 1955 and 1956. The Tange Laboratory was in charge of the design. However, the project was never realized due to the inability to resolve technical issues. This study will clarify the design process for Takamatsu House at that time, and while doing so, we will consider the influence of the public housing standard design, the relationship with the 1960 plan for Tokyo.
