Popis: In order to conserve historical environment of cities as their individuality, buildings may be asked to be harmonized with streetscape subject to certain regulations. However, it is often difficult to describe concrete conditions of this harmonization in detail. Using a case study on prize-winning architectures of Kanazawa Urban Structure Award, a king of urban design awards established by citizens of the City of Kanazawa in Ishikawa Prefecture, the following issues were investigated in this study. First, parts of architectures, appreciated by judges of the award in terms of harmonization, were selected. Secondly, factors of architectural design considered by designers for harmonization were analyzed. Lastly, architectural contexts of Kanazawa, which were inherited to newly-built architectures, were clarified.
