AboutAbout the lab
The history and present of cities and architecture
Nakajima Lab studies the history and present of cities and architecture.
It investigates how infrastructure such as city blocks, streets, and waterways, the buildings constructed on them, and the natural environments surrounding and within cities were formed, and what kinds of landscapes and images they have created.
The lab examines the historical process and mechanisms behind this formation from the perspectives of social and cultural background, technology, and ideas.
It also works to conserve and make use of existing historic environments, linking this to community development and the regeneration of local communities.
