A study on the spatial characteristic of the aristocratic residences of the middle and lower class in the ancient times

本研究旨在厘清古代中下层贵族住宅的空间特征。本研究的结果如下：1。这座名为“sukiwatadono”的建筑是上层贵族住宅的重要元素之一。但是居住观念的改变使得“住和堂”变得越来越重要，导致了“住和堂”的消失。位于大都市平安区的贵族住宅有一个不受社会地位秩序束缚的空间，也是公共艺人可以出入的地方。中下阶层的贵族住宅一般没有kurumayadori（保管牛车的房间）和samuraiya（追随者守卫和等待的房间）。有仓库是外省贵族住宅的特点。仓库是平安都市乡村生活的象征，体现了平安都市的乡村住宅文化。
