  • The Vitality and Resilience of Inherited Japanese Houses －100 Years of Shimizu-Gumi Houses－
    The Vitality and Resilience of Inherited Japanese Houses －100 Years of Shimizu-gumi Houses－ Preface Since its foundation in 1804, residential architecture had been one of the primary business focuses for Shimizu-gumi, the present Shimizu Corporation. Many books have been published to showcase its works, such as Sekkei zushū, jūtaku no maki, ji 1907 nen shi 1923 nen (Drawing collection: house, from 1907 to 1923) and Sekkei zushū, shitsunai narabini kagu dentō no maki, ji 1909 nen shi 1913 nen (Drawing collection: interior, furniture and lighting, from 1909 to 1913). These books feature painted drawings of large houses, which could be considered mansions in the Western sense, designed and built by Shimizu-gumi, and include plans, elevations, development plans, and illustrations of furniture. The books enable the reader to visualize many aspects of mansions in the Meiji era (1868-1912) and Taisho era (1912-1926,) and to understand how these mansions were significant as elements of urban culture. Additionally, an academic work based on these earlier texts was published to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Housing Research Foundation JUSOKEN: Meiji/Taisho no teitaku, Shimizu-gumi sakusei saishiki-zu no sekai (Mansions in Meiji and Taisho, the world of colored drawings created by Shimizu-gumi, Kashiwashobo, 2009, currently unavailable). This book is the product of joint research by “Shimizu Kensetsu Teitaku Shiryō Kenkyūkai” (Shimizu Corporation Mansion Document Study Group, 2004 to 2009) in the “Jūtaku Shiryō Iinkai” (Committee for historical materials about houses) of Jusoken. For the next phase of study, surveys and research on Jūtaku kenchiku zushū (Residential architecture catalog, 1st volume: 1935, 2nd volume: 1939) should be conducted.

  • Restorative Style Seen in the Shishinden Hall Area, Kyoto Imperial Palace, and How It Has Been Used
    ／宮内庁京都事務所年報 ２号 ２０２１／本文／００１‐ ２号 ２０２１ 2021.05.11 15.51.11 Page 125 Restorative Style Seen in the Shishinden Hall Area, Kyoto Imperial Palace, and How It Has Been Used MITSUDA Saori The palaces and halls of the Kyoto Imperial Palace built in 1855 incorporate Japanese architectural styles ranging from those of the Heian Period to the time of construction, retaining the original ambience of the court cultures that had blossomed in Kyoto for more than a millennium. Even though the architectural space in the area of the Shishinden Hall, the main building of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, was designed aiming for the restoration of the architectural style of the Heian Period, in practice, some parts deviate from the faithful reproduction of the style. For all that, by focusing on how the architectural space has been used for rites, it is clear that the architectural forms and the usage based on traditional ritual procedures correspond well to one another. Behind this correspondence, there were carefully considered choices based on building use, in order to, under various constraints, restore the bygone historical architectural style of the Heian Period. Thus, the Kyoto Imperial Palace was built after fully identifying the essential needs of the Japanese court, and understanding the construction philosophy is nothing else but understanding the history of the Japanese court cultures. 125 ／宮内庁京都事務所年報 ２号 ２０２１／本文／００１‐ ２号 ２０２１ 2021.04.26 14.53.06 Page 126 Science Research and Analysis Associated with Restoration Work on Corridor around the Shishinden Hall Area, Kyoto Imperial Palace NAGASAKI Noriko The corridor and the gates surrounding the South Courtyard of the Shishinden Hall of the present Kyoto Imperial Palace are painted with coating materials.
