Otani University Main Building and Research Wing, comprising Hakusogo Hall and Jingenyuan Hall, stands in Kyoto's Kita Ward as a notable example of 1980s institutional architecture. Completed in 1982, this comprehensive academic facility was designed by Kawasaki Kiyoshi and the Environmental Architecture Laboratory. The complex demonstrates the architects' thoughtful approach to creating functional university spaces that harmonize with Kyoto's traditional urban fabric while embracing modernist principles. The building's design reflects careful consideration of academic workflows and campus integration, making it a significant work in postwar Japanese educational architecture.
