Abstract This study aimed to explore the theory of proportion reflected on the plans of Ando Tadao’s housing projects and the results from the study are as follows. First, from the results of analyzing Ando Tadao’s cases, differences from the theoretical proportion were observed. However, in most cases, the proportion values in his works were very close to the theoretical proportion within error range of . It can be inferred that Ando Tadao took into account the proportion on house plans. Second, as for mass, there appeared proportion rectangles with similar rectangle ratio(40%), integer ratio(30%) and root ratio(30%) and for rooms, there were proportion rectangles with root ratio(48.8%), integer ratio(44.0%), golden ratio(6.0%) and similar rectangle ratio(1.2%). Third, for the root ratio rectangle and integer ratio rectangle that were most frequently appeared in rooms, rectangle(70.7%) was most frequently used for root ratio rectangle while 1:1 rectangle(56.8%) was most frequently used for integer ratio rectangle.
