Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study focuses on the "Open City Program", where particular local resources such as architecture, garden, factory or heritage are simultaneously open to the general public during limited days. As a result of the survey, it could grasp the whole context with regard to the purpose, resource, scale and organisation as well as develop a method for planning and management of this program.
