Outline of Final Research Achievements	This study analyzed the urban formation of 25 industrial cities located in the coastal area of the Seto Inland Sea. As a result, cities are categorized based on industrial characteristics, geographical conditions, and location of factories, and the characteristics of each category are analyzed. The research team conducted field and historical document surveys to understand the housing supply during the urbanization period of the typical cases in each category. Consequently, it was found that the ideal form of the industrial city differs depending on the development period of the city and industrial attributes. In terms of housing, it was found that the housing supplier has changed significantly in each period, by private sectors before WWII; by the Housing Corporation during the war; by local governments (public housing construction) after the war. The design of residential units and neighborhoods have changed accordingly.
Free Research Field	建築計画，都市計画，居住文化
Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	人口減少社会を迎えた日本では，縮退を見据えた新たな都市再生手法が模索されており，拡大期に形成された居住地に対するエリアマネジメントの導入や立地コントロールなどが検討されている。そこでは既存の居住地への働きかけがテーマとなることから，歴史的文脈を把握することがこれまで以上に重要になっている。本研究は，近代期に著しい発展を遂げた瀬戸内工業都市を事例として，都市形成に大きな影響を及ぼすハウジングの展開から近代化の特性を把握したものであり，近代都市計画史およびハウジング史としての学術的意義を有するとともに，今後の都市施策にも役立つ成果といえる。
