The purpose of this research is to consider the issues concerning planning methods of quality countryside houses from the viewpoint of sustainability of the local community. Satoyama Club, which is the non-profit organization in Toyama, has been developing Hirakigaoka housing development in the suburbs of Toyama. Through a case study of this development, the following points of an argument to planning methods were found: One is the rigidity of the procedure to plan quality countryside houses causes some restrictions on resident participation, especially taking a cooperative approach. The other is the typical house design makes attribution of community members unified and the sustainability unstable.

In planning traditional architecture we use Kiwari which was arranged from the Kamakura period to the Edo era. Kiwari -system is based on the rafter number which is set in each intercolumnation. Though it is a kind of proportion, but we cannot use in every case, because it differs in designing architecture in a large scale or in a small scale. In designing a small architecture, a restriction on practicing into a small scale, for every part of architecture will go tiny and weak and no longer exist as architecture and will be a kind of architectural model. In this paper it is dealt about the Kiwari - system restriction in existing architecture., 本文データの一部はCiNiiから複製したものである。
