Abstract

<p> This study aims to clarify the design process and mechanism of creating the riverside space in the Kamo River Improvement Project after the 1935 flood in Kyoto—the results are shown below. Against the background of differences in policy between the prefectural and the municipal governments regarding the interpretation of scenic beauty, the Kyoto Prefecture designated scenic districts and established a Landscape Committee to discuss important matters individually. After the Great Kyoto Flood of 1935, the Kyoto Prefecture took the lead in planning the river improvement, and the prefectural and municipal governments worked together to create a comprehensive landscape around the river, including bridges and urban planning. The Kyoto Prefecture formed the Kamo River Improvement Planning Committee to oversee the renovation work, and established a system of cooperation with the Ministry of Home Affairs, Kyoto City, and the Landscape Committee. Based on this system, the prefectural government designed a midstream cross-section to control flood and preserve historical landscape, and designed a waterside space, taking into consideration the opinions of the people in the coastal districts.</p>
