Founder's Hall, Amida Hall and Founder’s Hall Gate, Shinshū Ōtani-ha (Higashi Honganji)

This project involved restoring three of the world’s largest wooden structures, the symbolic structures of the Shinshū Ōtani-ha(Higashi Honganji) mother temple. Highest priority was placed on the preservation of traditional cultural properties, and traditional techniques were combined with the latest in architectural technology to perform the restoration while also ensuring safety. This resulted in a project that communicates the skills and ideas of our ancestors to subsequent generations.
