Study on the dwelling in the changing process of family, individual and society in the present day Reconstruction of family habitation and communication in the tendency toward society with decreasing birth rate, aging and individualization

本研究分为两个研究对象。本研究第一部分的目的是考虑基于居住关系的老年父母赡养的发展趋势。我们明确如下。近年来，老年父母与子女家庭同住的寄宿户呈减少趋势。不再是寄宿户，而是半亲密的居住关系正在增加。半亲密居住关系是指子女家庭居于工作场所和父母住所之间，在赡养父母和方便通勤出行之间取得平衡。在半亲密的居住关系中，子女家庭对父母的接触和支持很多。第二部分从吃饭和学习的角度考察了家庭成员在家中产生沟通的措施。首先，我们通过报纸上插入的住房法案和住房杂志上出现的房屋平面图、照片和解释，澄清了近年来将起居室改为“Chanoma”或将起居室改为客厅兼餐厅的问题。其次，通过对住宅生活和住宅杂志的研究，考察了信息家电在家庭中的引入以及住宅中常见的学习空间，指出了进行家庭研究的必要性和可能性。这些结果表明，他们倾向于或倾向于从小隔断的房间到开放宽敞的房间。这似乎是基于家庭成员之间视觉接触的温和交流的方向性。这种开放或宽敞是规划住宅交流空间的关键概念。

This study is divided into two subjects. The aim of the part one of this study is to consider the trend of the support for the aged parents based on the residential relationship between parents and children. We made clear as follows. The lodging household which the aged parents reside with children family is decreasing recently. Instead of the lodging household, Semi-close residential relationship is increasing. Semi-close residential relationship mean that children family take up their residence at halfway between their work place and parents house to keep a balance between support the aged parents and convenience of commuter trip. There are much contact and support for parents by children family in the semi-close residential relationship.In the second part, We investigated the measures to generate communication of family members at their houses from the viewpoints of meal and study. Firstly we clarified the change of a living room into a "chanoma" or the change of a living room into a living-dining room in recent years through the housing bills inserted in papers and the house plans, photographs and explanations that appeared on the housing magazines. Secondly we investigated the introduction of information appliances to the home and the space for common study in a house through the researches of housing life and the housing magazines, and we pointed out necessity and possibility of a family study. These results show that they have an inclination or a preference toward an open and spacious room from small partitioned room. It seems to be directivity to mild communication that is based on visual contact between family members. This openness or spaciousness is the key concept for planning of communication space of a house.
