東京大学大学院工学系研究科建築学専攻の准教授の松田雄二と申します
平等な社会を目指し
バリアフリーを研究しています
都市環境や建物は
多数派を念頭に作られますが
私の研究は障害者向けの
様々な建築環境の設計です
従来の居住型施設だと
入居者は四六時中同じ場所にいます
その環境では
自立を感じにくいでしょう
居住型施設に住む人の自発的な行動を促すには
建築デザインにより可能になります

English: 
My name is Matsuda Yuji, an associate
professor at the department of architecture at the University of Tokyo.
My research aims to reduce barriers for people with disabilities, to make the world more equal.
Most of the time, buildings or city environments are designed for the majority people.
My research is to design many kinds of
architectural environment for people with disabilities.
In many typical residential facilities, people stay in the same place [day and night].
In that situation it is very difficult to have the feeling of independence.
I think people in residential facilities can live more independently...
...and I think architects can make it happen.

English: 
This is the Yajirobe, a group home for people with severe disabilities,
which is a really good example of residential housing.
This house has a separate bathroom here which is good...
...because this is large enough to take a bath with assistance.
They have large toilets here which could
be used by wheelchair users.
And [they] have a large dining and living room,
in which wheelchair users could come together and have dinner.
I'm using many kinds of methods to carry out my research.
But the most important method is interviews.
The reason why I perform interviews is [so] I could see the real environment or real situation that people are living in.

Japanese: 
重度身体障害者のグループホーム
「やじろべえ」は
居住型施設の好例です
浴室はトイレとは別にあり
浴室は、介助者と一緒に入るのに
十分な広さです
トイレも車いすに対応しています
ダイニングやリビングも広さに余裕があります
車いす使用者が一緒に食事をしたり交流の輪に入りやすくなっています
研究は様々な手段で行いますが
聞き取り調査が最重要です
現場の声を聞いて、実際の生活環境や現状を知ります

Japanese: 
居住スペースをデザインするにあたり、浴室での介助者の動きは客観的には分かりにくいので
モーションキャプチャを使い
必要な広さを明確にしました
実際の介助を見せてもらった後
研究室で介助者に再現してもらい、
動作をモーションキャプチャーで機器に取り込みます
私は週に１日か２日くらい施設で入居者にお会いします
住宅環境や建築設計の助言をしたり
時には地元の行政担当者と
話し合ったりします
障害者を孤立させる環境が
まだまだ多いので
自由に自分達の住まいを選ぶ選択肢が広がればと願っています

English: 
When we design the residence, nobody thinks about the bathing action with care takers.
So I tried to clarify how much space we need by using motion capture.
First I made observations in the house, and then asked the caretaker...
...to do the same thing in the experimental situation, and recorded the action with motion capture.
In a typical week I spend one or two days meeting with people who are living in the residential facilities.
Also [I give] lectures about the
housing environment and architectural planning.
And I sometimes meet local government officers to discuss [housing for people with disabilities].
Most of the time, people with disabilities are living in a remote, isolated situation.
I would like to see people with disabilities have freedom to choose where they live.
