The Kominka Collective's mission is to save Japanese kominka folk houses and other traditional structures while preserving Japanese building arts. 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.
