【Message】

Although the social economic situation including a declining population, a super aging society, a stagnant state of economic growth, a delegation from central government to district office, and the diversification with regards to the sense of value, has changed remarkably. The solution for finding newly emerging problems has not yet fully progressed. Under these constraints, within the limited resources, capital, and hours, I hope to discuss and develop ideas with the students on how to renovate urban or district areas which need to support flourishing human lives.
