Abstract

This study aims to clarify the transition of townscape through paint colors at the West Historic Quarter in Hakodate where many old western style houses remain with wood siding. The main method is to scrub a small part of painted wooden walls, windowframes and posts of houses with sandpaper and to find concentric color rings of paint layers, which we named "temporal color ring". As a result, we found that the color of the townscape has changed seven times in the period over one century from the begining of the Meiji era until present day, and after the 1970s the characteristic colors are pink and pale green, and decorative painting by different colors among walls and other parts.
