The Kominka Collective works to preserve Japan’s traditional architecture by rescuing at-risk structures and giving them new life through sustainable disassembly, relocation, and adaptive reuse.
We are a not-for-profit company.

Along with temples and shrines, temple gates and other structures are being torn down as rural areas become more and more depopulated. The Konaiji Temple Gate is 108 years old and is scheduled to be torn down in or after August 2025.  Download the portfolio here.  A detailed estimate of costs to relocate and rebuild the temple gate is available.
