Pattern Language for Good Old Future From Japanese Culture
نویسندگان
چکیده
Having developed greatly over millennium under its culture, the ancient buildings and old town atmospheres maintain a quality of comfort. However, people only appreciate the “good old” quality and do not think further about the rational reasons why they feel comfort in it. This keeps them from creating their own things and models with good old quality, relying on the imported western thinking and methods as a result of modernization. Since people are now struggling under the imbalanced and complex society, we believe that support is needed for generating things and frameworks with good old quality in modern time situations and scenes. Therefore, we propose a language, which verbalized the process of generating things and systems with such quality under creative activities. Based on Christopher Alexander’s pattern language of describing good design practices, we have created a Pattern Language for good old future from Japanese culture. In order to create things and frameworks with a quality of comfort in collaboration, a common language is needed among people in Japan. Using this pattern language, people will be able to create their own comfortable society where frameworks and things with good old quality are widespread. Additionally, by extracting the good old quality from old cultural backgrounds, it will be possible to build on a society with its fully cultivated culture alongside a firm basis.
