Abstract

<p>Kenban performs administrative duties related to geisha and plays an important role in Kagai. A Kenban building basically consists of an office and a rehearsal space for geisha. But its architectural forms and functions vary. In recent years, the Kenban building has been used for events and has become an important place to communicate the traditional culture of the area. However, the architectural characteristics and usage of Kenban buildings throughout Japan have not been clarified. The purpose of this research is to comprehensively clarify the architectural characteristics and actual state of use of Kenban buildings throughout Japan.</p>
