Description
Summary:Japan has always been strongly affected by natural hazards. Throughout history, disasters have caused many damages that have led to changes in risk prevention and in post-disaster reconstruction processes. After the earthquake of 1995, the social problems that ensued following the inadequate relocation of victims highlighted the dangers of social isolation. To what extent have these new considerations influenced public housing built after the disasters of 2011 in Tōhoku and 2016 in Kumamoto? This article aims to answer this question using post-disaster public housing projects (災害公営住宅/saigai kōei jūtaku) built in the Miyagi (Tōhoku) and Kumamoto prefectures. The analysis reveals innovative architectural features that emerged within the urban design and the morphology of this housing, both designed specifically to support community networks and enhance neighborhood relationships.
