32Topic21Koji Fujii on Japanese residences in the 21st century(1888~1938)19131920192821( )Architect Koji Fujii (1888-1938) graduated from Tokyo Imperial University Engineering College, School of Architecture in 1913. He was the first architect to have graduated Teikoku University to join Takenaka Corporation, and he was present when the company's Building Design Department was first established. Soon after joining the company, he handled the design of the Osaka head office for Asahi Shimbun and the Hashimoto Kisen building. In 1920, he was invited to become a lecturer at the Kyoto Imperial University Department of Engineering, Architecture Course founded by Goichi Takeda, where he worked to establish a department of environmental engineering. Chochikukyo, built in 1928 in Oyamazaki, Kyoto, was Fujii's final experimental home and personal residence. Using the environmental engineering that he had helped to establish at his university, Fujii was one of the first architects to try to create residences that truly matched Japan's climatic conditions. He theorized about and experimented with natural lighting, outside air access, ventilation, thermal insulation and so on from a scientific perspective in an attempt to improve the nature of the Japanese dwelling. Chochikukyo represents the summation of all of his theories, and in addition to being well-suited to the Japanese climate, it has an effortless beauty and expresses a uniquely Japanese sentiment. The attractiveness of its architecture is further heightened by the fusion of high-level Western and Japanese designs, an equal blend of the international style and the traditional Japanese sukiya style, as well as by the fact that it is backed by environmental technologies.28Topic
