I recreated a real Kyoto machiya, a traditional Japanese townhouse built in 1904. I used measured architectural drawings surveyed in 1970 and published in Kyo no Machiya (1971) to model its exterior, interior layout and wooden construction.

• A long, narrow two-story townhouse with a traditional tiled roof.
• Toriniwa: an earth-floored passage running from the entrance toward the rear garden.
• Traditional Japanese rooms, sliding doors, internal structure and toilet.
• Interior spaces that can be viewed from a wide range of camera angles.

The street-facing second-floor windows reflect the design of this Meiji-period townhouse. This model provides both exterior architecture and rooms for scenes inside the house.

Use it for manga and comic backgrounds, historical animation, cinematic environments, Japanese streets, architectural visualization and educational projects.

Blender (.blend), FBX and OBJ files are supplied. Native Blender file: version 4.0.2, Cycles.

Source-model statistics: 1,741,550 vertices; 3,462,137 polygon faces; 3,462,137 triangles. Exported files may have different counts. This is a high-detail architectural model; real-time projects may require optimization.

For the FBX version, extract Kyoto_house_fbx.zip. Extract the supplied Kyoto_house_textures.zip archive and preserve its folder structure.

In Blender, if images are missing, use File > External Data > Find Missing Files and select the extracted texture folder. In other software, check the material texture paths after import; shader appearance can differ between applications.
