Concept
This project was our first trial to design and present an original work in a public exhibition. The first question was "how was the tea rooms like in Heian period (8-11 century), before Zen style began?" The decoration in Heian period is usually characterized in refined gracefulness and elegance. We succeeded in realizing the sensible beauty of that period, and also make a use of this experience in our current projects.
