JAPAN

Sliding doors and the sweet grass smell of tatami
Low entrance way and platform floor
Peering into the living room "stage"
Entrance from exterior with Y's ceramic work
The garden outside
Steeped roof and shaded walls

Sliding wooden door locks

What looks like a sink was the tub
Rough-hewn timbers form the structure of the Edo houses

Walls of cracked mud-straw mixture

Traditional hearth
