🌿 Daikaku-ji Kominka(traditional japanese wooden house) Renovation Project
Just a few minutes from Kyoto’s Daikaku-ji Temple,
down a quiet narrow lane,
a new story is about to begin—inside an old Kyoto house.
7 minutes to Daikaku-ji,
12 minutes to the Bamboo Grove,
15 minutes to Nison-in,
and 20 minutes to Togetsu Bridge.
Spring breeze, summer cicadas, autumn light, winter calm.
Here, in a place where the seasons and culture of Kyoto are alive,
we face the wood, refine our skills and our spirit,
and breathe new life into a home.
Every beam, every grain of wood—
touched, carved, and polished by hand.
The sound of chisels echoes,
and the scent of wood fills the air.
This is more than a construction site.
It is a classroom where tradition is practiced,
and passed on to the future.
All lessons are conducted in English,
welcoming participants from around the world to learn through hands-on experience and to feel the essence of Japanese craftsmanship.
When the house is completed,
it will be offered for sale—
a home imbued with the quiet beauty
and warmth of handmade craft.
“Learn by doing. Create by caring.”
A new way of learning from Suikoushya,
born in the heart of Kyoto.
