• Five-story apartment building in Tokyo complements site wholeness through 50 structure-preserving steps that accentuate Y-configuration, positive space, levels of scale, and sunny southern orientation.finding0.809
  Architectural example of harmony-seeking computation as iterative process where each design step strengthens latent structural features of the site.
• The present government plan for the Shiratori area is an environment with 14-story apartments, a huge shopping center and a huge parking area. It is typical of today's trend. What do you think of it?question0.744
  Initial question posed to residents in the survey.
• The cost of construction of the Shiratori plan is the same or lower than costs of present-day high-rise housing.claim0.734
  Economic feasibility claim countering common assumptions.
• Separate classroom buildings with rain-exposed paths (Case 2) are more essentially rooted in the actual desires and feelings of Eishin community members than the standard connected-building Case 1 arrangementfinding0.713
  Comparative finding from the Eishin case showing latent centers being more essential than conventional ones
• Summer in Japan is hot and sticky; cross ventilation is easily achieved with shallow 6 m deep apartments.claim0.703
  Functional benefit of the narrow building footprint.
• In typical apartment buildings, the plan is treated as fixed and not subject to correction, preventing sensible adaptation and resulting in unloved spaces.claim0.699
  Critique of apartment design process.
• The lack of unfolding in the Japanese building complex's ground floor and inclined planes shows that they simply appeared from a whim, not from sensible adaptation.claim0.696
  Japanese building critique.
• The Northwest College Building at Eishin is a firm precise rectangle with an arcade requiring regular column spacing, and a ceiling beam array acting as a horizontal moment-resisting diaphragm for earthquake resistance.finding0.692
  Shows the integration of structural necessity (seismic diaphragm) with geometric order
