About my research
The temporary title is Postwar Showa heritage safeguarding and transmission.
There will be a focus on shotengai for this research, as it englobes buildings, culture, social afbic and specific shops.
The purpose of this research is to:
- Understand how people perceive heritage in Japan, as well as their links to their local shopping street.
- Study and analyse of different initiatives and projects by Japanese people and Foreigners, with their personal backgrounds and feelings.
- Gather effective methods and initiatives that could be adapted to different places and address local issues.
- Develop strategies to safeguard the shotengai in the local community.
- Create some more strategies, if possible, to both safeguard postwar urban design and guide future urban development planning.
- Document this heritage in a database and/or other media.
