The aesthistic of brick building facade has an important standing in the history of Taiwanese architecture. The objectives of this study are: (1) to identify the characteristics of brick building styles by systematically analyzing the building facade in this period, with special focus on the relationship between the style and the construction system behind it, and (2) to identify the his--torical meaning of the stylization process by cross- examining its background factors. In the first chapter, the issues, the scopes, the objectives and the method of the study are covered. The process of learning from foreign brickwork technologies and the characteristics of the various brick building types in Taiwan are described in the second chapter. In the third chapter, the construction methods and characteristics of the four basic parts of the brick building facade: walls, openings, columns, and parapet gutter are discussed separately, and existing brick buildings are surveyed. Inthe fourth chapter, the study focuses on the brick style buildings in the Japanese occupation period, and the design, the construction organizations, architectural space, building facade etc in that period which contributed to the phenomenon of "brick building stylization" are systematically analyzed. In the fifth chapter, conclusions are drawn from the above analysis. The result of various stylization of brick building types which brought by different construction systems in the period of Japanese occupa--tion in Taiwan, and their representative historical meaning are examined and described respectively.
