According to the research (1), the public housing managers are not always the specialists of the housing management, the tenants associations should play the role of the housing managers on the spot and so the specialist called Housing Area Manager something like that should be introduced. The results of the researches (2) are as follows : A small regional difference in the method of preservation could be recognized, such as an iron oxide red (Beniga-ra) in Kyoto district and a lacquer (Urushi) in the area along Japan Sea applied to the exteriors and interiors of houses, respectively.
