บทคัดย่อ

Policies and studies that have been conducted in the past targeting low-income
communities have not fit into the lives of the residents. It is necessary to learn what kind of
living environments have been formed in long-lasting communities. The question of this
study is: How are the living environments formed in accordance with everyday activities?
This study employs qualitative research such as participatory observation combined with
measurement, interviews, and photography. The following three points were clarified by the
investigation. First of all, the residential environment which can be said to be a neighborhood
cluster composed of alley shape, social relationships were clarified. The second point is the
two types of housing frontages. Due to the differences in the physical and social environments,
we found that the activities observed there also differed. The third point is the factor that
formed such living environments. In addition to the original shape of the land, residents
themselves expanded their dwellings or utilized the existing living environment, depending
on their daily needs. This results in a living environment suitable for everyday activities.
