Oriental Japanese wabi sabi tea room with 'shakkei' which means borrowed scenery and traditional Maiko wall mural, shoji screen and kumiko lantern. The design theme of the tea room is traditional Japanese with shoji screen sliding windows, doors and minimal woodwork panel. There is recessed seating for 4 people.
The word 'wabi-sabi' comes from Buddhist teachings; of the three marks of existence: impermanence, suffering, and emptiness. Previously Japanese tea ceremonies were about lavish and luxury. Ever since the 16th century, the tea ceremony masters started finding beauty in rugged appearance and rustic simplicity. This change in belief eliminated grand tea rooms and replaced it with plain objects found in nature.
In this thatched hut there ought not to be a speck of dust of any kind; both master and visitors are expected to be on terms of absolute sincerity; no ordinary measures of proportion or etiquette or conventionalism are to be followed.
