Openness has been part of Japanese housing culture since a long time ago. As society and housing culture progress, it might be natural that the concept of openness also develops and changes. To plan the future, we first need to know how this concept has been and is currently being used. Therefore, this research aims to understand the application of openness concept in contemporary houses in Japan. Using KH Coder 3, a text mining analysis program, ten years of article texts in Housing Special magazine (Jutakutokushu) are extracted and the co-occurrence networks are analyzed. Projects containing “openness” are analyzed further to find the considerations taken and their common characteristics. The ten years of co-occurrence networks show a general understanding of the use of the most frequent words, while further analysis of projects representing openness concept shows common consideration in the design: an intention to create a relationship with its surroundings. |
