Japanese Tea Rooms Designated as National Treasures and Important Cultural Properties INTRODUCTION:This book introduces the famous tea rooms in Japan. Of these, 4 are designated as national treasures and 28 are designated as important cultural properties. Many illustrations and drawings are included to help the reader grasp the spaces of these outstanding buildings. Spaces are photographed a little brighter, so you can see the details better. The book also includes floor plans as well as expanded drawings with dimensions, allowing the reader to imagine the spaces that were thought out in detail by the tea masters of the past.When you look at the floor plans of the tea rooms in this book, you will be amazed at the variety of plans that occurred, despite the fact that the tea ceremony is a very conventional form.The book includes several teahouses that are not usually open to the public, so it is a must-see for anyone interested in teahouses. We highly recommend this book to architecture enthusiasts as well.All contents are in Japanese.
