Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Berkeley, 1985.

This study treats architecture as material culture and demonstrates how the built environment, or more specifically, restaurants, can be used to learn about cultural values and beliefs. It uses the architectural evolution of San Francisco Chinese restaurants from 1849 to 1984 as a case study to demonstrate how physical form is influenced by "market" (i.e. population mix and demographics) and "social attitude" (i.e. the cultural stereotypes held by diners and restaurant owners). First, the study describes the three periods of Chinese restaurant history: (1) Chinese restaurants for a bachelor society, 1849-1906; (2) the Americanization of Chinese restaurants, 1906-1965; and (3) the reemergence of Chinese culture in Chinese restaurants, 1965-1984. Second, it discusses how specific cultural images are communicated through architecture by examing different elements of restaurant form: name type and signage, geographic location, plan and decor. Finally, the dissertation examines the role of Chinese restaurants as cultural intersections: places where different peoples can lean about one another both actively (through social interaction) and passively (by gleaning environmental and non-verbal cues) and how the environment can be manipulated to promote greater cross-cultural interaction and understanding.Subjects--Topical Terms:
