Kumiko Inui, Professor
0 student voices
Kumiko Inui Studio is a studio that considers, together with cities and architecture, the mechanisms that underpin everyday life. Rather than focusing on backbone-scale systems spread across the country, it works with mechanisms that serve as infrastructure within areas of moderate extent. It begins by researching "small landscapes," the traces of people's autonomous activities and consideration, and identifying the infrastructure that lies behind them. At Y-GSA, students belong not to a lab but to a place of learning called a studio.
Maki Onishi, Professor
0 student voices
Maki Onishi Studio takes "architecture connected to the time of the land" as its theme and works to envision a utopia for our time through architecture. At Y-GSA, students belong not to a faculty member's lab but to a place of learning called a studio. Each semester, students choose a studio and, rather than inheriting the research of faculty members or senior students, select assignments according to their own interests and deepen their inquiry. Professor Maki Onishi's research covers architectural design and architectural theory, pursuing methods of architectural creation that include landscape and regional planning.
Ryue Nishizawa, Professor

Nishizawa Studio is a studio at the Yokohama Graduate School of Architecture (Y-GSA) at Yokohama National University that works on architectural design proposals under the theme "Toward Architecture for a New Era." At Y-GSA, students belong not to a professor's lab but to a studio, which is the place where they learn. In their assignments, students consider architecture that expresses the values of a new era, places and living environments suited to human beings, and connections to the history of the region. The studio is led by Professor Ryue Nishizawa, an architect.
Teppei Fujiwara, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Fujiwara Studio is an architecture and urban design studio that considers how industry shapes the form of cities and architecture. Industry is highly influential, and it shapes not only the form of cities but also the lives, culture, and mindset of the people who live in them. Through architecture, the studio considers what sustainable industry that respects people and regions could look like. It is one of the studios of the Yokohama Graduate School of Architecture (Y-GSA) at Yokohama National University, where students belong not to a lab but to a studio, which is the place where they learn.
Tomonori Kiyota, Professor

The Y-GSC studio researches art and culture across fields including film, contemporary art, literature, dance, theater, popular culture, sound culture theory, and psychoanalysis. The concept page describes the role of the faculty as that of a midwife, who works together with students to give form to the "something" they bring and sends it out into society. In the Yokohama Urban Culture Course, students learn across practical studio subjects such as "Spatial Culture Design," "Critical Media Creation," "Sound Culture Studies," and "Video and Physical Expression," as well as theoretical subjects. The Architecture and Urban Culture Course (Urban Culture track) is also called the Y-GSC Thesis Course, and the Yokohama Urban Culture Course is also called the Y-GSC Portfolio Course.

The International Graduate Program in Civil Engineering (IGSI) trains people who can work in civil engineering to solve problems mainly in cities in emerging and developing countries. The course offers practical education with an emphasis on studio-based education. The course is not only for Japanese students; it is also established to educate international students, including master's students in the MEXT special program for government-sponsored international students. Lectures, studio-based education, and master's thesis supervision are basically all conducted in English.
