人の生き方と建築 -ヴォーリズとレイモンド-
The way of life and architecture in Vories and Raymond

人によってつくられたものには、その人の個性、生き方がなにかしら表れるものである。戦前の日本で、欧米の建築を作ることができる特異な建築家として、学校や住宅、ミッション建築などで活躍した二人のアメリカ人建築家、ヴォーリズとレイモンド。その対照的な生き方、戦争との関わり、建築観を振り返り、二人がICUに残した建物にその人生と個性を読み解く。

There were two American architects in prewar era Japan, Vories and Raymond. They were very unique in the meaning that they built many notable Western-style architectures such as school buildings, residential houses and churches. In this lecture, we review their contrastive way of life, relation with the war, view of architecture. We could understand their personality and life from the buildings that they left in ICU.Lecture in Japanese
