In the philosophy of traditional Japanese architecture, the design of space goes beyond mere function; it becomes a sanctuary of balance and tranquility. Consider the Shoji screens, crafted from delicate paper, which, when closed, create a sacred boundary between public and private spaces. This respect for privacy allows for a profound sense of peace within a home, transforming it into a haven of introspection and calm. The concept of “layered intimacy” further enhances this philosophy, organizing this space in such a way that each area of the home offers a unique sense of closeness and personal connection. As you move through the layers of the home, you encounter different degrees of warmth and seclusion, fostering a harmonious living environment. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath dwelling invites you to experience thoughtful design. With a new screened-in porch, detached 1-car garage. A short, level walk from downtown. It's affordable in a high-priced market. Lots of work needed but worth it.
