Description

Sazae-san is a highly popular Japanese comic strip created by Ms. Machiko Hasegawa. Ms. Hasegawa created the characters when she was walking along the beach of Momochihama, Fukuoka City, in the 1940s. As the city is the birthplace of "Sazae-san", the municipal government of Fukuoka City named an approximately 1.6km long municipal street in Sawara Ward, Fukuoka City, "Sazae-san dori Avenue" and is promoting community revitalization program along the street. In this communication, the authors report the activities of designing "Sazae-san dori Avenue" in one year and a half and the results since September 2013, when the Investigative Commission for Designing "Sazae-san dori Avenue" was established. The Commission extracted problems and issues and determined the direction, themes, viewpoints and policies of designing community activities and the street. After it completed its mission of designing, the commission transformed itself into a council and continued acting to improve the design, promote community activities, and increase recognition level, such as by encouraging use of signs and banners.
